The St. Louis Cardinals traded reliever Genesis Cabrera to the Toronto Blue Jays on Friday.

In exchange, the Cardinals received minor league catcher Sammy Hernandez.

Cabrera, 26, is 1-1 with a 5.06 ERA in 32 appearances out of the St. Louis bullpen this season. The left-hander was designated for assignment on Monday.

He is 13-11 with three saves and a 4.14 ERA in 174 games (two starts) over five seasons with the Cardinals.

Hernandez, 19, was a 14th-round draft pick by Toronto in 2022.

He is batting .213 with three homers and 15 RBIs in 42 games this season with Class A Dunedin and the Blue Jays’ Florida Complex League team.
