Cardinals release veteran Jonathan Broxton

The St. Louis Cardinals released pitcher Jonathan Broxton.

What It Means:

Broxton may get an opportunity with a club needing help in the bullpen, but the 32-year-old right-hander hasn't turned in an ERA lower than 4.50 since the 2014 season.

In 20 appearances for St. Louis this year, Broxton twirled a disappointing 6.89 ERA and 2.17 WHIP, albeit that came with a 4.63 xFIP and 4.72 SIERA.
