Cardinals Transfer James Naile To Kia Tigers
10 months agoThe St. Louis Cardinals have transferred reliever James Naile to the Kia Tigers of the Korean Baseball Organization. The right-hander made 10 relief appearances for the Cards in 2023 but surrendered 15 earned runs and nine walks against just seven strikeouts across 10 appearances and 15 1/3 innings of work. Add in his seven outings spanning nine innings from 2022 and the 30-year-old owns a 7.40 ERA and -2.5 K-BB% in 17 MLB appearances. However, he did fare much better at Triple-A in 2023 as he posted a 3.66 ERA and an 18% K-BB% across 31 appearances with Memphis. He was designated for assignment last offseason but returned to the organization for the 2023 season.
