Leahy (1-1) struck out three over 2.2 perfect innings to earn the win Monday over Angels.
EDGE Analysis
Starter Matthew Liberatore labored through 3.1 innings, while Leahy was sharp and kept the Cardinals' deficit at four runs. The team's offense made a rare explosion with eight runs in the seventh inning, and they held the lead the rest of the way to get Leahy his first big-league win. The right-hander has a 5.59 ERA, 1.03 WHIP and 7:3 K:BB over 9.2 innings through five appearances as a long reliever this season. With Liberatore still not stretched out as a starter, Leahy could continue to piggyback him while Steven Matz (back) is on the injured list.

The Cardinals recalled Leahy from Triple-A Memphis on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
The right-hander served as the 27th man for Tuesday's doubleheader and will quickly rejoin the major-league roster as Steven Matz (back) heads to the injured list. Leahy has made four appearances over the past two years with the Cardinals and has given up six runs over three innings.

The Cardinals returned Leahy to Triple-A Memphis following Tuesday's doubleheader with the Tigers, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.
EDGE Analysis
Leahy received his first call-up of 2024 on Tuesday, serving as the Cardinals' 27th man for the twin bill. He came on in relief of starter Steven Matz in the Cardinals' 11-6 loss in Game 2, taking the loss while allowing two earned runs on two hits in 1.1 innings.

The Cardinals selected Leahy's contract from Triple-A Memphis on Tuesday, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.
EDGE Analysis
Leahy will be the club's 27th man for Tuesday's doubleheader in Detroit and is likely to be sent back down afterward. The right-handed reliever was removed from St. Louis' 40-man roster over the offseason, but he's made his way back on after holding a 5.84 ERA and 14:4 K:BB over 12.1 innings this season at Memphis.

The Cardinals sent Leahy outright to Triple-A Memphis on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Leahy was brought onto the Cardinals' 40-man roster in July and made three appearances before being optioned back to Triple-A. He surrendered four earned runs over just 1.2 innings in the majors, and posted a 6.37 ERA across 83.1 frames with Memphis. Barring a significant improvement, Leahy doesn't project to contribute significantly in the majors next season.

Leahy was optioned to Triple-A Memphis on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Leahy made his big-league debut in early July but allowed at least one run in all three of his relief appearances, failing to record three outs in any of them. He'll take his 21.60 ERA and 5.40 WHIP back to the minors, with Drew VerHagen (hip) returning from the injured list to take his spot in the bullpen.

Leahy (0-1) allowed two runs on two hits and two walks while striking out two over two-thirds of an inning to take the loss Friday versus the White Sox.
EDGE Analysis
Leahy gave up a solo home run to Luis Robert and then loaded the bases. Chris Stratton allowed an inherited runner to score, breaking the tie and leaving Leahy with the loss in his MLB debut. Leahy had a mediocre 4.06 ERA, 1.61 WHIP and 51:23 K:BB over 51 innings with Triple-A Memphis as a long reliever, and it's possible his stay on the big-league roster could be short.
