  • Out against lefty
    Gorman is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Mets.

    Advice: The Cardinals are facing a left-handed starting pitcher (Sean Manaea) for the second day in a row, so the lefty-hitting Gorman will once again head to the bench. Jose Fermin will fill in for Gorman at second base. Rotowire.com Today, 3:44 pm

  • Won't start versus lefty
    Burleson is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Mets.

    Advice: The lefty-hitting Burleson will remain on the bench for a second straight game while the Cardinals oppose another southpaw starting pitcher (Sean Manaea). Ivan Herrera will replace Burleson as St. Louis' designated hitter. Rotowire.com Today, 3:43 pm
     
  • Moves rehab to Memphis
    Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol said Carpenter (oblique) will shift his rehab assignment to Triple-A Memphis on Tuesday, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: Carpenter kicked off his minor-league assignment with Double-A Springfield on Friday and appeared in two games over the weekend, going 1-for-6 with a walk, two runs and an RBI. The 38-year-old has been on the injured list since April 2 with a right oblique strain, but once he's activated, he could push Alec Burleson for the Cardinals' primary designated-hitter gig.

  • Draws rare start
    Wendle will start at second base and bat seventh in Monday's game against the Cardinals, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

    Advice: Wendle will start for just the ninth time through the Mets' 35 games this season, handling second base while Jeff McNeil gets a look in left field. The 34-year-old will likely to continue seeing light use in his utility role unless the Mets lose one of their regular infielders to injury. Rotowire.com Today, 3:33 pm
     
  • Batting ninth Monday
    Outman will start in center field and bat ninth in Monday's game versus the Marlins.

    Advice: Outman has mostly batted seventh this season, but he hit eighth in his last two starts and is now down in the nine spot for the first time since July of 2023. He entered play Monday hitting just .107/.219/.143 across his last nine contests. Rotowire.com Today, 3:25 pm
     
  • Getting Monday off
    Amaya is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Padres.

    Advice: Amaya will receive a breather after he drew starts behind the dish in each of the Cubs' last three games. Yan Gomes will handle the catching duties in Monday's series opener. Rotowire.com Today, 3:13 pm
     
  • Not starting Monday
    Wisdom is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Padres.

    Advice: Wisdom had served as the Cubs' designated hitter in three of the past four games, going 4-for-11 with a home run, a double, two two walks, two RBI, three runs and two stolen bases during that stretch. Christopher Morel will get a day out of the field and will be deployed at DH, but Wisdom could have a hold on a near-everyday role until Seiya Suzuki (oblique) returns from the injured list.

    Esteury Ruiz (wrist) is hitting leadoff and playing left field against the Rangers on Monday.
