The St. Louis Cardinals are currently taking on the Milwaukee Brewers in a rare five-game series, and things aren't looking great for the Cards, who have lost eight straight games (including three this series) to the Brewers.
While they try to find some sort of answer for the recent losing ways to their top division rival, St. Louis is making another wave of roster moves, which includes cutting a 4-year MLB pitcher.

Yesterday, the Cardinals announced they would be selecting the contract of Luis Gastelum.
Well, to make room for him on the 40-man roster, pitcher Jared Shuster has been designated for assignment, per multiple reports. The Cardinals designated Bruce Zimmerman for assignment on Tuesday, as well, so it's a whole pitching staff shuffle right now.
MLBTR.com's Darragh McDonald wrote:Â
"Shuster, 27, signed a minor league deal with the Cards in the offseason. Three times this year, he has been added to the big league roster. Since he is out of options, after a few appearances, each stint has ended with him being designated for assignment. He cleared waivers the first two times."
