  • Nolan Arenado (forearm) eyes midweek return
    Nolan Arenado took grounders on the field prior to Monday’s game and could rejoin the Cardinals’ lineup in the next few days.

    Advice: Arenado is out of the lineup for a second straight game due to left forearm nerve irritation, but it looks like the injection he had over the weekend is helping. Brandon Crawford is again playing third base tonight. Rotoworld Monday, 1:54 pm
     
  • Remains out Monday
    Arenado (forearm) is out of the lineup for Monday's game against Atlanta.

    Advice: Arenado will miss a second straight start after he exited Saturday's 9-4 win over the Giants with left forearm discomfort.

  • Nolan Arenado not in the lineup on Monday
    Nolan Arenado (forearm) is not in the Cardinals’ lineup on Monday against the Braves.

    Advice: Arenado received an injection over the weekend while he deals with a nerve issue in his left forearm. He was hit by a pitch in Saturday’s game, but that was in his right elbow so it’s unclear what prompted the issue in his left forearm. The Cardinals are continuing to evaluate him to decide if he should go on the IL or not. Rotoworld Monday, 12:51 pm
     
  • Not starting Sunday
    Arenado (forearm) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game versus the Giants.

    Advice: Arenado exited early in Saturday's 9-4 win due to discomfort in his left forearm. According to Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat, Arenado received an injection to alleviate the pain, and the Cardinals still waiting to see how the veteran third baseman responds to the shot before determining his availability for their upcoming three-game set with Atlanta that begins Monday. Brandon Crawford will pick up a start at the hot corner Sunday and bat eighth while Arenado rests. Rotowire.com Sunday, 9:14 am
     
  • Nolan Arenado out Sunday with forearm discomfort
    Nolan Arenado (forearm) is absent from the lineup for Sunday’s series finale against the Giants.

    Advice: Arenado has gotten banged up physically over the last few days as he’s been dealing with a right elbow issue stemming from a hit by pitch earlier this week and also left Saturday’s game early with left forearm discomfort. The fact that he hasn’t been put on the injured list is a positive indicator that he’s still day-to-day for now. The 33-year-old received a pain-reducing injection on Sunday morning and is hoping to be available to pinch-hit, if needed. Rotoworld Sunday, 8:25 am
