The St. Louis Cardinals have finalized a three-year, $75 million deal with free-agent right-handed pitcher Sonny Gray, who achieved a 5.3 fWAR performance. The addition of Gray, along with Lance Lynn and Kyle Gibson, is expected to significantly bolster the Cardinals' starting rotation for the 2024 season. The Cardinals' projected rotation for 2024, with Gray as a key player, is set to push their tax payroll to around $202 million. The Cincinnati Reds were also reportedly interested in Gray before he signed with the Cardinals. The Cardinals have officially announced the signing, and Gray is set to join the team, marking a significant shift in the Cardinals' pitching lineup.
