Jimmy Crooks to Join MLB Roster
The St. Louis Cardinals are promoting catching prospect Jimmy Crooks to the MLB roster prior to their contest on Friday evening against the Cincinnati Reds. In a corresponding move, the Cardinals are placing catcher Yohel Pozo (concussion) on the 7-day concussion list. The 24-year-old has spent the entire 2025 season at the Triple-A level. Through his first 98 games at the top level of the St. Louis system, Crooks has posted a solid .274/.337/.441 line with 21 doubles, 14 home runs, and a 114:36 K:BB. During this stretch, Crooks has not stolen a base and scored 61 runs and brought in 79 runs. In 2024, Crooks spent his time with Double-A and posted an impressive .908 OPS. Given that Crooks will likely share time with Pedro Pages, he is only worth a look in deep NL-only formats.
