Cardinals' Michael McGreevy: Joining rotation Tuesday
Michael McGreevy is listed as the St. Louis Cardinals' scheduled starting pitcher for Tuesday's game against the Rockies at Coors Field.After being called up from Triple-A Memphis on Wednesday, McGreevy was put to work out of the bullpen a day later in the Cardinals' game against the Pirates. He scooped up the win while tossing three scoreless innings in relief, and he'll now get the chance to enter the St. Louis rotation for the final week of the season due to Lance Lynn (knee) and Sonny Gray (forearm) both recently going on the injured list. Unless the Cardinals elect to expand their rotation to six men by moving Steven Matz from the bullpen, McGreevy will tentatively line up for two starts during the final week of the season. After Tuesday's contest in Colorado, McGreevy would be lined up to take the hill for the finale Sunday in San Francisco.

Cardinals' Michael McGreevy: Earns win in relief
Michael McGreevy (2-0) allowed two hits and struck out four without walking a batter over three scoreless innings to earn the win Wednesday over Pirates.The St. Louis Cardinals' six-run rally in the seventh inning gave McGreevy a lead, and he didn't let the Pirates back in. He's won both of his major-league appearances this season, the other one being an excellent seven-inning start versus the Rangers on July 31. Lance Lynn's season is done due to renewed right knee inflammation, which gives McGreevy an opportunity to potentially pick up a start in the final week if the Cardinals want to stick with a six-man rotation.

Cardinals' Michael McGreevy: Joining big-league club
The St. Louis Cardinals are expected to recall Michael McGreevy from Triple-A Memphis prior to Wednesday's game against the Pirates, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.McGreevy was scratched from a scheduled start Tuesday for Memphis, and that move was evidently made because he's headed back to the majors. While a start down the stretch is possible, McGreevy is expected to be available in long relief for now. He threw seven innings of one-run ball in a spot start in his major-league debut in late July.

Cardinals' Michael McGreevy: Impressive in big-league debut
Michael McGreevy (1-0) earned the win over Texas on Wednesday, allowing one run on five hits and one walk while striking out three batters over seven innings.McGreevy wasn't overpowering, but he had good control and allowed just one extra-base hit over his seven frames. The right-hander has never posted big strikeout numbers in the minors, and he recorded a 4.45 ERA across 109.1 innings with Triple-A Memphis this season prior to his call-up Wednesday, so fantasy managers are likely best served tempering expectations rather than rushing to the waiver wire to claim the 24-year-old. This was likely just a spot start in the majors for McGreevy, though he certainly showed enough to be a consideration for St. Louis the next time a spare arm is needed.
