The Former Cardinal Free Agent List
Here’s all the former Cardinals on the free agent market
I’ve pulled together a list of all the former Cardinals I could find that have hit the free agent market – former big leaguers and farmhands. I’ll update this as the off-season goes along with where players have signed and add players as things happen (non-tenders, DFA, etc).
With each player, you’ll find their position and the level they were granted free agency/released from. Italicized items are the new contracts; bolded are new updates.
I’ll also be adding traded players in some capacity.
