Cardinals Set to DFA Nelson Velázquez
St. Louis will remove Velázquez from the active roster via DFA or waivers as he has exhausted his minor league options.
The Cardinals are removing outfielder Nelson Velázquez from their MLB roster, per a beat reporter. Because Velázquez has no remaining minor league options, the team must designate him for assignment or place him on waivers. The move is being made to activate waiver pickup Everson Pereira ahead of tomorrow's game against the Rockies. The transaction may already be official or finalized imminently.
