JUPITER, Fla. • After renewing outfielder Tommy Pham’s contract at $570,000 last year when the two sides couldn’t agree on a one-year deal, the Cardinals renewed the contracts of righthanded pitchers Jack Flaherty and Jordan Hicks Saturday. The club also announced the signing of 18 other non-arbitration-eligible players to one-year deals.
