Rest-of-Season Projections
2026 Fantasy Outlook
The Cardinals did not set out to have Pages lead them in starts at catcher each of the last two seasons, but that's what happened. In 2025, Willson Contreras made a full-time move to first base and Ivan Herrera spent most of the year either injured or at designated hitter, leaving Pages to shoulder the catching load. He earned a plus-6 in Statcast's Catching Runs and managed to pop 11 home runs across 389 plate appearances, but Pages' .272 on-base percentage and wRC+ of 77 wasn't pretty. The Cardinals' plan, again, is to feature others ahead of Pages at catcher in 2026, but you know what they say about best-laid plans. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a one-year contract with the Cardinals in March of 2026.
Idle Friday
Pages isn't in the lineup for Friday's game against San Diego.
Analysis
Pages will get a breather after going 0-for-14 with five strikeouts over his last four games. Ivan Herrera will handle catching duties Friday while Nolan Gorman works as the DH, opening up third base for Cesar Prieto.

Stat Review
How does Pedro Pages compare to other hitters?
This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.
* Exit Velocity and Barrels/PA % are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 400 PA) and Hard Hit Rate is benchmarked against last season's data (min 400 PA). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

2025 Fantasy Outlook
It was Pages - and not Willson Contreras or Ivan Herrera - who wound up leading the Cardinals in starts at catcher last season with 60. The reasoning behind that was due in part to Pages, as he drew trust behind the plate with his defense and handling of the pitching staff, but also because of shortcomings with the other two, whether it be injuries (Contreras) or throwing issues (Herrera). The Cardinals have elected to move Contreras off catcher in part due to those injuries problems, leaving Pages and Herrera to share starts behind the dish. The 26-year-old Pages has the pop for double-digit homers if he emerges as the 1A to Herrera's 1B, but Herrera has the much more intriguing offensive package.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Trade candidate this winter
Pages is a potential trade candidate this offseason, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.
Analysis
The Cardinals have a glut of catching depth both at the major- and minor-league levels. Pages has led the team in starts behind the plate each of the last two seasons, but Ivan Herrera and Jimmy Crooks are slated to receive the bulk of the reps at catcher in 2026. The 27-year-old Pages does have minor-league options remaining, but with prospect Leonardo Bernal pegged as the primary catcher at Triple-A Memphis, Pages could be dealt. Pages slashed .230/.272/.363 with 11 homers over 112 games in 2025 and graded out in the 87th percentile in framing, per Baseball Savant.
