The St. Louis Cardinals’ hot start has cooled fast—after a surprising first half, they’ve slumped to 3-9 in their last 12 games, now out of playoff contention. The pitching staff, especially veteran Matthew Liberatore, is at the heart of the collapse. With an ERA over 5 and multiple outings of 3+ earned runs in his last nine starts, Liberatore’s struggles are undeniable. But manager Oliver Marmol has no intention of sending him down—he’s committed to giving Liberatore a chance to turn things around. While a bullpen return might be a smarter move, Marmol’s faith in his starter’s resilience is unwavering, even as the team eyes trades to salvage their season.
