2026 Projections
Signed a minor-league contract with the Cardinals in December of 2025.
Lands in St. Louis as NRI
The Cardinals signed Shuster to a minor-league contract Monday that includes an invitation to spring training, Jon Morosi of MLB Network reports.
Analysis
A first-round pick in the 2020 First-Year Player Draft, Shuster was once a prospect of some note. However, the left-hander's performance thus far at the major-league level hasn't been encouraging, as he holds a 5.27 ERA and 98:64 K:BB over 141.2 innings covering parts of three seasons. Shuster is capable of starting and relieving, and it's unclear what role the Cardinals have in mind for him, but he has a chance to make the roster on a rebuilding squad.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
2021
Shuster saw his first MLB work in 2023, making 11 starts and posting a 5.81 ERA and 1.50 WHIP with nearly a 1:1 strikeout-to-walk ratio in 52.2 innings pitched. The former first-round pick was sent to the White Sox in the offseason where he'll be given a chance to make the rotation out of Spring Training. Thought of as a high floor pitcher in the past, Shuster will need to recover from a down season in 2023 which also saw him post a 5.13 ERA with Triple-A Gwinnett. The left-hander will need to prove his worth to fantasy managers before being considered for much more than spot starts in 2024.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Chance to start Tuesday?
Shuster could be called up to start Tuesday against the Rangers with Dylan Dodd not an option for Atlanta after he pitched Sunday for Triple-A Gwinnett, reports Mark Bowman of MLB.com.
Analysis
Shuster was expected to pitch against Boston last Wednesday but was passed over in favor of an opener, and he remains an option for Atlanta this week. The big club will be without Max Fried and Kyle Wright due to forearm and shoulder injuries, respectively, for the next two-plus months, which should provide plenty of chances for Shuster to enter the rotation even if he's not called upon for Wednesday's contest.
