Liberatore's confidence rising with longest start of '25 NEW YORK – Left-hander Matthew Liberatore is looking like the pitcher the Cardinals were expecting after they acquired him from the Rays as...
Takes loss despite quality start Liberatore (1-2) took the loss against the Mets on Saturday, allowing two runs on six hits and one walk while striking out six in 6.2 innings.
Impact Both of the runs Liberatore yielded came in the third inning, the second of which came on a Pete Alonso RBI double. Liberatore was dominant outside of that frame, generating 13 whiffs while logging the quality start on 100 pitches (66 strikes). The 25-year-old southpaw has allowed three earned runs or less in three of his four starts this season and has a 3.60 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 24:2 K:BB across 25 innings. He'll look to get back in the win column in his next start, tentatively slated for next weekend at home against the Brewers.

Logs quality start Tuesday Liberatore didn't factor into the decision after allowing three runs on six hits and no walks in six innings Tuesday against the Angels. He struck out four.
Impact Liberatore registered a quality start in his season debut, throwing 53 of his 77 pitches for strikes Tuesday. The Angels did their damage against the 25-year-old southpaw in the third inning, with Luis Rengifo driving one run in on a double and Mike Trout plating two more with a double of his own. Liberatore's next start lines up for early next week in a favorable matchup against Pittsburgh.

Impact The Cardinals will operate with a modified six-man rotation at the beginning of the season, with Liberatore part of it and Steven Matz pitching in relief for now before making a start on April 16. Michael McGreevy nearly won a rotation spot and looms at Triple-A Memphis, but it sounds as if Liberatore will be given a long leash in the rotation. The left-hander has a career 3.89 ERA as a reliever versus a 5.86 ERA as a starter.
