ST. LOUIS ADDS SHORTSTOP FERMIN

The St. Louis Cardinals acquired infielder Jose Fermin from the Cleveland Guardians for cash.

What does it give the St. Louis Cardinals
In Fermin, the Cardinals land a young shortstop with good defensive chops for a team that lacks depth at that position. This is a decent pickup for St. Louis.

What does it give the Cleveland Guardians
As opposed to St. Louis, Cleveland has plenty of depth at the shortstop position. Therefore, Cleveland moved Fermin on in exchange for a bit of cash.

Fantasy impact
There is no fantasy impact here, as Fermin is not a huge offensive contributor. He is mostly a good glove man.
