ST. LOUIS, Mo. -- For now, it appears Hoosac Valley graduate Matt Koperniak will start the 2025 regular season with the Memphis Redbirds.
The St. Louis Cardinals Sunday announced that the outfielder and two infield prospects in the Cardinals' system were being optioned to the Triple-A affiliate in Tennessee.
In 15 games with the Major League club at Spring Training, Koperniak hit .355 with an OPS (on-base plus slugging) of 1.039.
He had two home runs, three doubles and six RBIs in the Grapefruit League.
Last summer at Memphis, Koperniak led the team with a .309 batting average and .882 OPS and 20 home runs in 122 games.
The Redbirds play an exhibition game against the Cardinals on March 24 in Memphis before opening their season on Friday, March 28, at Louisville.
