After spending seven years in minor league baseball, Caldwell was called up by the St. Louis Browns.
He reappeared successfully on September 22, 1935, outdueling Schoolboy Rowe in a three-hit, 1–0 shutout over the American League leading Detroit Tigers.
Caldwell ended with a 3–2 mark and a 3.68 ERA, but faded to a 7–16 with a 6.00 ERA in 1936 and was sent again to the minors.
In 1944, Caldwell helped the Milwaukee Brewers to clinch the American Association title.
Caldwell compiled a 19–5 record, earning the most wins in the league and finishing with the highest winning percentage (.792).

He also led the AL in games finished (37) and had a 2.08 ERA in 90 innings pitched.
