| Cardinals | St. Louis signs Rubén Tejada | |

| BHQ take: Rubén Tejada's status as a free agent lasted only a couple of days with his signing by the Cardinals. Tejada could get the majority of starts at short, at least until Jhonny Peralta returns from his injury in mid-season. Tejada experienced an uptick in skills in 2015, registering a .257 xBA and a 101 xPX. —Phil Hertz | |
