    • Resting Thursday
      Herrera isn't in the Cardinals' lineup for Thursday's game against the Giants, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

      Advice: Herrera will sit for the second game in a row Thursday despite going 8-for-18 with three RBI across his last five contests. Pedro Pages will instead start behind the plate and bat eighth. Rotowire.com Thursday, 11:45 am

    • Cardinals say Arenado has right elbow contusion
      The Cardinals said Nolan Arenado has a right elbow contusion after being hit by a pitch Wednesday.

      Advice: That doesn’t mean much at this point, since he’s still undergoing tests. It certainly didn’t look good when it happened. Rotoworld Wednesday, 12:05 pm
       
    • Nolan Arenado exits after taking pitch off right elbow
      Nolan Arenado left Wednesday’s game against the Marlins after being hit on the right elbow by a pitch.

      Advice: Arenado was still in a whole lot of pain and not moving his arm as he was helped off. José Fermín replaced him in the contest. If Arenado goes on the IL, Fermín would stand to benefit, but the Cardinals could also give Brandon Donovan more infield time. Rotoworld Wednesday, 11:49 am
       
    • Smacks homer Tuesday
      Donovan went 1-for-5 with a two-run home run in Tuesday's 9-8 extra-inning loss to the Marlins.

      Advice: Donovan has gone 15-for-51 (.294) over his last 13 games, adding two homers and seven RBI in that span. The 27-year-old got a rare start at third base Tuesday with Nolan Arenado taking a day off, though Donovan has found consistent playing time between left field and second base for much of the year. He's at a .247/.319/.380 slash line with six homers, 32 RBI, 32 runs scored and one stolen base over 67 games. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 9:56 am

    • Masyn Winn returns from illness
      Masyn Winn is back in the Cardinals lineup Wednesday after missing Tuesday’s game due to illness.

      Advice: Winn is leading off today, and Brandon Crawford has returned to the bench. Rotoworld Wednesday, 7:38 am
       
    • Day off Wednesday
      Cronenworth is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game in Philadelphia.

      Advice: Cronenworth will get his first day off in more than a month as the Padres and Phillies conclude their series with a day game after a night game. Tyler Wade will fill in at second base while Cronenworth gets some rest. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 7:18 am

    • Getting breather Wednesday
      Herrera is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Marlins, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Herrera will get a breather for Wednesday's day game after going 1-for-4 with a walk and a run scored while catching the first nine innings of Tuesday night's 9-8 extra-inning loss. Pedro Pages will step in behind the dish for the series finale. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 7:13 am

    • Returning from illness
      Winn (illness) will start at shortstop and bat leadoff in Wednesday's game in Miami, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

      Advice: Winn missed out on his first start since June 5 in the Cardinals' 9-8 extra-inning loss Tuesday, when he was scratched from the lineup shortly before opening pitch due to an illness. Fortunately for Winn, the one day of rest appears to be all he needed to shake off the ailment. The 22-year-old will take back his usual spot atop the St. Louis lineup in the series finale with the Marlins. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 7:11 am
       
    • Launches 18th homer
      Santander went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Tuesday's 4-2 loss to the Yankees.

      Advice: The 29-year-old spoiled a combined shutout bid for New York when he took Clay Holmes deep in the top of the ninth inning. Santander has slugged four homers in the last four games, continuing a massive June that has seen him slash .292/.347/.738 with nine of his 18 long balls on the season. Rotowire.com Wednesday, 7:07 am
