Jun 28 2024Pallante (4-3) allowed four hits and three walks over 5.1 shutout frames Friday, striking out five and earning a win over Cincinnati. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Pallante worked around a few jams to keep the Reds off the board. The Cardinals would go on to win 1-0, so his scoreless performance was much-needed. Since moving into the starting rotation, Pallante has produced a 3.86 ERA with a 25:13 K:BB in six starts. His season ERA dropped to 4.50 through 38 innings. Pallante's next start is currently lined up to be in Pittsburgh.
Jun 21 2024Pallante (3-3) picked up the win over the Giants on Thursday, allowing five runs on seven hits and three walks over 5.1 innings while striking out five. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Pallante cruised through the first two innings before failing to retire four of the first five batters he faced in the third, leading to three runs coming home for San Francisco. The right-hander would get tagged for another two runs in the sixth, marking the second time in his last four that he's coughed up at least five runs. Pallante also matched his season high with three walks and failed to make it through six innings for the fourth consecutive outing. Despite those struggles, he's now won three of his last five starts.
Jun 15 2024Pallante (2-3) took the loss Saturday, giving up two runs (one earned) on five hits over 3.1 innings as the Cardinals were downed 5-1 by the Cubs. He struck out four without walking a batter. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The right-hander didn't pitch badly, blanking Chicago through three innings, but Pallante got lifted after 59 pitches (40 strikes) with two runners on base in the fourth and had to watch Chris Roycroft let them both come around to score. Pallante has been effective in three of four outings since moving into the rotation, posting a 3.64 ERA, 1.38 WHIP and 15:7 K:BB through 17.1 innings over that stretch. He lines up to make his next start at home next week against the Giants.
Jun 9 2024Pallante (2-2) allowed three hits and a walk over five scoreless frames Sunday, striking out six and earning a win over the Rockies. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Pallante never found himself in too much trouble as he cruised to a win Sunday. He fired 45 of 68 pitches for strikes, including 13 whiffs. That matched his total swinging strikes generated over his previous 14 MLB innings entering Sunday's start. Since rejoining the MLB roster, Pallante has gone 2-1 with a 3.86 ERA, though all his earned runs came in one appearance. He's currently slated to make his next start on the road against the Cubs.
Jun 4 2024Pallante (1-2) allowed six runs on six hits and three walks while striking out one over three innings to take the loss versus the Astros on Tuesday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Pallante dazzled in his first start of the season with six scoreless innings versus the Reds, but the Astros were able to hit him harder. They put up a pair of runs on groundouts in the first inning before rallying for four more runs -- including a three-run blast by Yainer Diaz -- in the third. Pallante is now at a 6.16 ERA, 1.79 WHIP and 11:11 K:BB over 19 innings across 11 appearances (two starts) this season. The Cardinals continue to struggle to fill the No. 5 spot in their rotation while Steven Matz (back) is out, though Pallante has been their best option so far. If he stays in the rotation, Pallante is projected to make his next start at home versus the Rockies.
May 31 2024Manager Oli Marmol confirmed Friday that Pallante will be the Cardinals' starting pitcher Tuesday against Houston,John Denton of MLB.com reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Pallante fired six scoreless frames Wednesday against the Reds, a start impressive enough to warrant another turn in the rotation. He'll face an Astros lineup that's been significantly more productive than Cincinnati's, but Pallante should warrant some streaming appeal after his strong starting debut.
May 29 2024Pallante (1-1) earned the win Wednesday over the Reds, allowing three hits and three walks over six scoreless innings. He struck out six. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Making his first big-league start since 2022, Pallante was sharp Wednesday, blanking Cincinnati over six innings in the winning effort. The 25-year-old right-hander made nine appearances out of the bullpen in St. Louis this year, struggling to a 6.30 ERA over 10 innings, though he was solid in four starts with Triple-A Memphis, allowing just four earned runs in 16.1 innings. Pallante certainly did enough to warrant another turn in the Cards' rotation -- he'd currently line up for a road matchup with the Astros early next week.
May 28 2024Pallante is expected to start Wednesday's game against the Reds, John Denton of MLB.com reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Pallante is likely to make his first big-league start since 2022 on Wednesday. However, manager Oliver Marmol said Tuesday that he wouldn't name a starter until after Tuesday's game, Lynn Worthy of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports. Pallante has made three starts at the Triple-A level this season but hasn't gone longer than five frames in any of them, owning a 2.20 ERA and a 9:13 K:BB across 16.1 total innings.
May 26 2024The Cardinals recalled Pallante from Triple-A Memphis on Sunday, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The move corresponds with Nick Robertson being placed on the 15-day injured list due to right elbow inflammation. Before being sent down to the minors April 21, Pallante appeared in nine games for the Cardinals, registering a 6.30 ERA and 1.90 WHIP across 10 frames. The 25-year-old right-hander could be used as a spot starter for Wednesday's game against the Reds, per Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
May 20 2024Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol said Monday that Pallante is a candidate to start Saturday against the Cubs, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The Cards are moving Matthew Liberatore back to the bullpen after trying him for a few starts, so they have an opening due to Steven Matz (back) still being on the mend. Pallante hasn't started a game in the majors since 2022 but has been getting stretched back out at Triple-A Memphis. His results have been mixed, as he's managed a 2.20 ERA but also an ugly 9:13 K:BB over 16.1 frames. Zack Thompson is the other main candidate to draw Saturday's start.
Apr 21 2024The Cardinals optioned Pallante to Triple-A Memphis on Sunday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: In his last outing Saturday against the Brewers, Pallante gave up three runs (two earned) on five hits and a walk. He has a 6.30 ERA, 1.90 WHIP and 6:5 K:BB over 10 innings to start the season. St. Louis recalled right-hander Nick Robertson in a corresponding move.
Apr 10 2024Pallante (0-1) took the loss versus the Phillies on Wednesday, allowing two runs on three hits and a walk while failing to record an out. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Pallante has served in a low-leverage role so far, picking up one hold over six appearances. He's given up at least one run in three of those games, and he had his worst outing of the season Wednesday. He's now given up five runs on six hits and three walks while striking out four over five innings this season. The Cardinals aren't short on late-inning options, so Pallante is likely to stay in middle relief.
Mar 4 2024Pallante has pitched three scoreless innings over three appearances in Grapefruit League play. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: He's allowed a hit and a walk while striking out two. Pallante struggled to a 4.76 ERA, 1.56 WHIP and 43:30 K:BB over 62 relief appearances in 2023 after splitting time between the rotation and bullpen in 2022. Pallante added 13 holds last year, but his poor play saw him in a low-leverage role to end the campaign. He'll be looking to get back into the late-innings mix in a crowded bullpen competition for the Cardinals.
Sep 30 2023Pallante allowed one run on four hits over one inning during Saturday's 15-6 win over the Reds. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Pallante allowed five runs over 13.2 innings in September, an improvement on the 12 runs (11 earned) he allowed in 13.2 innings during August. The right-hander has seen some high-leverage work in 2023, earning 13 holds, but just four of those have come since the start of August as he's worked in more of a middle-relief assignment. Pallante is at a 4.76 ERA, 1.56 WHIP and 43:30 K:BB over 68 innings this season, a significant downturn from the 3.17 ERA he recorded in 108 innings in 2022.
Aug 30 2023Pallante (4-1) allowed a hit in a scoreless inning and earned the win Wednesday over the Padres. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Pallante erased the hit with a double play, keeping the Cardinals within a run of the Padres in the ninth inning. Tommy Edman then delivered a walk-off two-run home run. This was just the fifth scoreless outing in 12 appearances in August for Pallante, who has still held onto a somewhat high-leverage role despite his lackluster recent performance. The right-hander has a 5.13 ERA, 1.55 WHIP and 39:24 K:BB with 11 holds and five blown saves over 54.1 innings this season. With Ryan Helsley (forearm) nearing a return, Pallante could soon find himself in more of a middle-relief role.
Jul 27 2023Pallante (3-1) allowed a run on two hits and a walk while striking out one over 1.1 innings to earn the win Wednesday over the Diamondbacks. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Pallante has had a rough July, allowing seven runs over 8.2 innings this month. The right-hander has been scored on in four of his eight appearances in that span, but he was able to emerge with his first win since May 13. He's at a 4.78 ERA, 1.54 WHIP and 31:20 K:BB through 37.2 innings overall. Pallante has added nine holds and five blown saves, though he could move up the leverage ladder a bit if Jordan Hicks is traded before Tuesday's deadline. Giovanny Gallegos would have the most to gain in that scenario.
Jul 15 2023Pallante will open Game 1 of Saturday's doubleheader against Washington, John Denton of MLB.com reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: After Friday's game was suspended during the third inning, Pallante will take the mound once action resumes Saturday. The 24-year-old righty has pitched at least two innings just once this season, so he'll presumably be relieved relatively quickly.
Jul 3 2023Pallante (2-1) allowed a run on two hits and struck out one without walking a batter over one inning, taking the loss Monday versus the Marlins. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Pallante allowed an inherited runner to score the tying run, then gave up another run in the seventh inning in relief of Miles Mikolas. Over 9.1 innings in July, Pallante was tagged for four runs on eight hits and eight walks. He's been fortunate to avoid taking a loss prior to Monday, as he has an uninspiring 4.11 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and 28:16 K:BB through 30.2 big-league innings this season. The right-hander has added eight holds and three blown saves -- he's seen more high-leverage work with Ryan Helsley (forearm) on the injured list.
May 14 2023Pallante (2-0) allowed a hit and struck out one over one scoreless inning in Saturday's 4-3 win against the Red Sox. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The Cardinals produced a comeback win for the second game in a row, and Pallante was the beneficiary after their three-run rally in the ninth inning. It's been mixed results for Pallante since he was recalled from Triple-A Memphis. He has given up a run in 4.1 innings while earning a win, a hold and a blown save over three appearances. The right-hander has a 5.68 ERA, 1.58 WHIP and 10:5 K:BB through 12.2 innings overall as a middle reliever this season.
May 9 2023The Cardinals recalled Pallante from Triple-A Memphis on Tuesday, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Pallante pitched well during his three-week stay at Memphis and will now look to get back to his 2022 form. He had surrendered seven earned runs on 12 hits and four walks over 8.1 innings this season with St. Louis prior to his mid-April demotion.
