St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Jack Flaherty's strong showing this month likely has boosted his trade value.
The Cardinals hope that trend continues Sunday afternoon when he draws the start in the finale of the three-game series against the visiting Washington Nationals. Washington posted a 7-5 win in the completion of a suspended game on Saturday before St. Louis responded with a 9-6 victory.
Flaherty could become a free agent after this season, and Cardinals president of baseball operations John Mozeliak has indicated the team will listen to trade offers on players with expiring contracts."I think Jack has elite stuff -- for him it's just a matter of being as consistent as possible," Cardinals third baseman Nolan Arenado told the Post-Dispatch. "If he's consistent, he is as good as anybody out there.
"Personally, I don't like it when other teams see us as a small team," first baseman Joey Meneses told MLB.com through an interpreter. "It gives us a little more motivation to just go out and play well, and hopefully, it goes in our favor." Gray lost to the Cardinals on June 19 after allowing six runs on nine hits in five innings. Paul Goldschmidt and Brendan Donovan each hit a homer off him in that game.In the first two games of this series, CJ Abrams went 4-for-9 with two stolen bases, five runs and a homer.
