  • Dylan Carlson (shoulder) to be activated on Sunday
    Dylan Carlson (shoulder) is expected to be activated from the 10-day injured list on Sunday.

    Advice: Pedro Pages will be optioned to Triple-A Memphis in a corresponding move on Sunday. Carlson has been shelved since spring training due to his shoulder injury but is finally ready to return to the Cardinals’ outfield. Remember, he hit just .219/.318/.333 with five homers, 27 RBI and three stolen bases over 255 plate appearances during the 2023 campaign. Rotoworld 18 minutes ago

  • Headed back to Triple-A
    Pages will be optioned to Triple-A Memphis prior to Sunday's game against the White Sox, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: He was up as a third catcher for a bit but will clear out to make room for Dylan Carlson's (shoulder) return from the injured list. Pages is 0-for-2 in four plate appearances with the big club, although he did have a go-ahead sac fly in the ninth inning of a comeback win over the Tigers earlier this week.

  • Matthew Liberatore to start for Cardinals Sunday
    Matthew Liberatore will start for the Cardinals in Sunday’s series finale against the White Sox.

    Advice: Liberatore has been pitching out of the Cardinals’ bullpen all season and has thrown more than 20 pitches in an outing just once since March 30. Needless to say, he shouldn’t be expected to work deep into Sunday’s game and doesn’t make for a strong streaming option. Rotoworld 21 minutes ago
     
  • Will be activated Sunday
    Carlson (shoulder) will be activated from the 10-day injured list prior to Sunday's game against the White Sox, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

    Advice: Carlson completed a rehab assignment with Triple-A Memphis and got through a workout at Busch Stadium on Saturday to clear the way for his season debut. The 25-year-old missed the first month-plus of the season with a sprained AC joint in his left shoulder. With Tommy Edman (wrist) still out, Carlson should see the bulk of the starts in center field for St. Louis. However, it's possible the club could ease him into a full-time role.

  • Evaluated for left knee injury
    Murphy is being evaluated for a left knee injury after exiting Saturday's game versus the Phillies, Shayna Rubin of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

    Advice: Murphy tweaked the knee as he tracked down a wild pitch in the second inning in rainy conditions in Philadelphia. It's the second catcher the Giants have lost in a day, as Patrick Bailey was just placed on the 7-day concussion injured list. Blake Sabol took over for Murphy on Saturday.

  • Alec Bohm leaves game with right hip tightness
    Alec Bohm was removed from Saturday night’s game against the Giants due to tightness in his right hip.

    Advice: The Phillies are calling his early exit only a precautionary measure, and for the time being the 27-year-old third baseman is considered day-to-day. Fantasy managers should pay close attention to his status on Sunday though just to be on the safe side. Rotoworld 46 minutes ago

  • Getting spot start Sunday
    Liberatore will start Sunday's game against the White Sox, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

    Advice: All 12 of Liberatore's appearances this season have come in relief, so while he did throw three innings in an April 28 appearance, this will be a bullpen game for the Cardinals. However, it's possible Liberatore could earn additional starts if he pitches well, as the Cards need to fill the rotation spot vacated by the injured Steven Matz (back).

  • Korey Lee doubles, drives in two in win
    Korey Lee went 2-for-4 with a double and two RBI on Saturday in a 6-5 win over the Cardinals.

    Advice: Lee led off the second inning with a double, then drove in two runs to tie the game with a base hit in the sixth. The 25-year-old backstop is emerging as a solid offensive catcher for the White Sox, slashing .271/.306/.475 with three homers across 62 plate appearances. Rotoworld Today, 5:45 pm
     
  • Nolan Arenado reaches five times, homers in loss
    Nolan Arenado went 3-for-3 with a three-run homer and two walks on Saturday against the White Sox.

    Advice: That’s back-to-back games with two hits and three RBI for Arenado. He knocked a base hit in the first inning, then drew a walk in the fourth. With two runners on base in the fifth, he took Erick Fedde deep for a three-run homer, his second of the season. Arenado drew another walk in the eighth and knocked a base hit in the tenth to reach base in all five plate appearances. The 33-year-old third baseman is slashing .290/.357/.403 with the two homers and 19 RBI across 140 plate appearances. Rotoworld Today, 5:44 pm
