J.A. Happ Traded To St. Louis Cardinals
3 years agoUpdating an earlier report, the Minnesota Twins have traded starting pitcher J.A. Happ to the St. Louis Cardinals for starting pitcher John Gant and relief pitcher Evan Sisk, according to Mark Feinsand of MLB Network. Happ has struggled on the mound this season, going 5-6 with a 6.77 ERA, 1.586 WHIP and 17.3 percent strikeout rate. He'll look to turn things around in the NL Central now with the Cardinals. Meanwhile Gant has also struggled this season, going 4-6 with a 3.42 ERA, 1.572 WHIP and 16.2 percent strikeout rate over 76 1/3 innings of work. Sisk has been having a good year between High-A and Double-A this season, going 2-0 with four saves, a 3.31 ERA, 1.592 WHIP and a 29.1 percent strikeout rate. Gant and Happ likely won't have much value the rest of this season, while Sisk could be a solid pickup in dynasty formats.
