  • Cardinals' Steven Matz: Next start coming in Cincy

    Matz isn't expected to make his second start of the season until next week's series in Cincinnati, when the Cardinals will shift back to a six-man rotation, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

    Matz had made his first five appearances of the season out of the bullpen before manager Oliver Marmol elected to expand the rotation to six men last week during a busy portion of the schedule. The southpaw was sharp in his first start April 16, claiming a win while limiting the Astros to one run on two hits and no walks over five innings. Despite Matz's strong outing, the Cardinals moved him back to the bullpen to begin the current week, with an off day Thursday allowing the team to temporarily condense the rotation to five men. Matz was called upon in relief in the Cardinals' 10-4 victory over Atlanta on Tuesday, when he recorded his second win of the season while tossing 2.2 scoreless innings. St. Louis will likely stay away from Matz for this weekend's series versus Milwaukee before reinserting him into the rotation early next week.

  • Cardinals' Nolan Gorman: Set to receive regular playing time

    Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol said Tuesday that he plans to give Gorman a lengthy "run" of starts, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

    Marmol revealed the plan prior to Gorman delivering a go-ahead, bases-clearing double in the eighth inning of Tuesday's win in Atlanta. Brendan Donovan (rib) being banged up has allowed Gorman to settle in at second base and in the third spot in the lineup for a second straight day Wednesday, and Gorman has started five straight contests overall. Donovan is not expected to need a stint on the injured list, and when he returns Gorman could get at-bats in the designated hitter spot at the expense of Alec Burleson.

  • Cardinals' Quinn Mathews: Set to resume throwing

    Mathews (shoulder) will resume a throwing program Wednesday or Thursday, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

    The top prospect was placed on the 7-day injured list at Triple-A Memphis last week with mild left shoulder soreness, an issue Mathews believe arose because his mechanics got out of whack. He's been doing resistance-band and weighted plyometric ball work and the resumption of a throwing program is imminent. It's not clear when Mathews might be ready to rejoin the Memphis rotation. He's struggled in the early going this season, holding a 6.10 ERA and 7:15 K:BB over his first 10.1 innings.

  • Cardinals' Nathan Church: Moves past injury

    Church (undisclosed) went 1-for-4 with a double and a run scored Tuesday in Double-A Springfield's 12-1 loss to Wichita after being activated from the 7-day injured list Monday.

    Church made his 2025 debut with Springfield after an unspecified injury had kept him on the shelf to begin the season. The 24-year-old was cleared to report to Double-A after completing a four-game rehab assignment last week with Single-A Palm Beach, during which he went 2-for-13 with a walk, a stolen base, three runs and an RBI.

  • Cardinals' Pedro Pages: Day off Wednesday

    Pages is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's contest in Atlanta.

    After catching each of the first two games of the series, Pages will grab a seat for Wednesday's matinee. Yohel Pozo is behind the dish and batting seventh for the Cardinals in the series finale.

  • Cardinals' Brendan Donovan: Held out again Wednesday

    Donovan (rib) remains out of the lineup for Wednesday's game in Atlanta.

    Donovan had a rib pop out of place Tuesday morning and will now sit out a second straight game. He is not expected to need a stint on the injured list and could be available to pinch hit Wednesday, per John Denton of MLB.com. Nolan Gorman will handle second base and bat third in Wednesday's series finale.

  • Cardinals' Nolan Gorman: Drives in three

    Gorman went 1-for-5 with a double and three RBI in Tuesday's win over Atlanta.

    Gorman provided some clutch hitting with the bases loaded and cleared them all with a double to right field. It's his second straight game with a double and an RBI and his first game with multiple RBI since July 20 of last year. Gorman's now up to seven RBI with five extra-base knocks.

  • Cardinals' Lars Nootbaar: Homers, swipes bag in win

    Nootbaar went 2-for-5 with a two-run homer, a walk, a steal, three RBI and two runs scored in Tuesday's win over Atlanta.

    Nootbaar opened up the scoring with a two-run blast to right in the third and later plated the Cardinals' 10th and final run of the game with a base hit in the ninth. Nootbaar last hit a homer April 16 and went just 1-for-his-last-20 at the plate before his long ball Tuesday night. Nootbaar now sits at four homers for the year and is already up to three stolen bases after totaling only seven in 109 games in 2024.

  • Cardinals' Andre Pallante: Struggles with command

    Pallante allowed four runs on seven hits and three walks while striking out a batter in 4.1 innings Tuesday against Atlanta. He did not factor into the decision.

    Pallante was able to blank Atlanta through three innings despite allowing traffic on the bases in each frame. His good fortune ran out from there as he surrendered four runs while only recording four more outs in the game. Tuesday's outing was tied for Pallante's shortest of the year, and he's now allowed four runs in consecutive starts after allowing just four runs total over his first three starts combined. Pallante possesses a 4.05 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 16:10 K:BB in 26.2 innings. He lines up to make another start on the road next week against the Reds.

  • Cardinals' Brendan Donovan: Unavailable due to rib issue

    Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol said that Donovan is unavailable Tuesday after a rib popped out of place earlier in the day, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

    Donovan's availability for Wednesday's series finale in Atlanta is also in question, although Marmol said it's unlikely the super-utility player will require a trip to the 10-day injured list. Nolan Gorman is occupying second base and batting third for St. Louis on Tuesday.

  • Cardinals' Brendan Donovan: Getting day off Tuesday

    Donovan is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game in Atlanta, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

    It's the first true day off for Donovan this season, as the first time he wasn't in the lineup came in the first game of a doubleheader. Nolan Gorman is handling second base and batting third for the Cardinals on Tuesday.

  • Cardinals' Michael Siani: Optioned to Triple-A

    The Cardinals optioned Siani to Triple-A Memphis on Tuesday, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

    He played sparingly behind starting center fielder Victor Scott, accruing only 17 plate appearances thus far. Siani will play more regularly at Memphis as he waits for another opportunity with the big club.

  • Cardinals' Masyn Winn: Back from injured list

    The Cardinals reinstated Winn (back) from the 10-day injured list Tuesday, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

    The 23-year-old landed on the shelf April 12 due to back spasms, but he's ready to rejoin the Cardinals after a minimum-length stay on the injured list. Winn had a slow start to the campaign with a .603 OPS through 13 contests, though he found his power stroke during a three-game rehab assignment with two homers.

  • Cardinals' Ivan Herrera: Begins baserunning progression

    Herrera (knee) began a baserunning progression Sunday, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

    Herrera did some straight-line running from base to base and will progress to rounding bases as his injured left knee allows. Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol said that Herrera has been able to increase other baseball activities without setbacks, and the catcher has also been taking batting practice and catching pitches from a high-velocity pitching machine. Herrera is just past the two-week mark of an absence that's expected to last at least four weeks, and his recovery seems to be coming along well. The young catcher is dealing with a bone bruise in his knee.

  • Cardinals' Erick Fedde: Pitched through calf issue

    Fedde pitched through a calf issue after being struck by a line drive in the second inning of Monday's outing in Atlanta, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

    Fedde wound up covering six innings in the start and limited Atlanta to two runs. He worked with a trainer in between innings to keep the muscle loose and felt fine while pitching, but Fedde had trouble putting weight on the leg while talking to the media after the game. Fedde will have six days of rest before his next scheduled start Monday in Cincinnati, and there's no indication at this point that he might be in danger of missing that start.
