  The Cardinals designated Tepera for assignment Thursday, Lynn Worthy of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports. Just three days after signing a one-year deal with the Cardinals, Tepera will now be cast off the 40-man roster and sent through waivers. Tepera allowed two runs across two innings with the club, and he holds a 7.59 ERA and 2.06 WHIP on the season.

  Tepera signed a one-year contract with the Cardinals on Monday, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports. Tepera was released by the Angels last month after holding a 7.27 ERA in 10 appearances this season, but he got back on track after inking a minor-league deal with the Rangers, tossing eight scoreless frames with 11 strikeouts. The veteran reliever will fill a middle relief role in St. Louis.

• Angels' Ryan Tepera: Pushed off 40-man roster

  05/14/2023 • By RotoWire

  The Angels designated Tepera for assignment Sunday. Tepera has struggled throughout the 2023 campaign, and his poor outing against the Guardians on Saturday that saw him allow a pair of solo homers and blow a save ended up being the final straw. Because of Tepera's previous success in the past there could be some interest in his services on the waiver wire, and it seems unlikely that the right-hander would accept an outright assignment to Triple-A if he goes unclaimed/untraded.

• Angels' Ryan Tepera: Blows save, takes loss

  05/14/2023 • By RotoWire

  Tepera (2-2) blew the save and took the loss in Saturday's 8-6 loss to Cleveland. He allowed two runs on two hits and one walk while striking out one over two-thirds of an inning. Tepera had a nightmare eighth inning, entering the game with a 6-4 lead and one out before immediately giving up a go-ahead three-run homer to Josh Naylor on just his second pitch. Though he managed to bounce back and get David Fry to go down swinging, Tepera was taken yard once again, this time by Andres Gimenez. After a brief stint on the 15-day injured list with a shoulder issue, Tepera had racked up seven strikeouts over 4.0 scoreless innings in his last three appearances but was unable to carry the success into Saturday's contest. The outing marked his second blown save of the season and hiked his ERA up to 7.27.
