Cardinals' Miles Mikolas: Chased early in 10th loss
Mikolas (6-10) took the loss Friday against the Rays, allowing five runs (four earned) on 10 hits and one walk in 2.2 innings. He struck out one.
Mikolas matched his shortest outing of the season, and it was the third time this year that he yielded double-digit hits. Additionally, it was the seventh instance in 2025 in which the veteran right-hander punched out a lone batter. While Mikolas has a lackluster 5.17 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and 81:31 K:BB across 125.1 innings, he might carry a shred of streaming appeal in deeper formats next week in a favorable home matchup versus the last-place Pirates.

Cardinals' Nathan Church: Added to lineup
Church will bat ninth and play center field Friday against Tampa Bay.
Church was initially tabbed for a night off, but he'll enter the starting nine Friday after Brendan Donovan (wrist) was scratched. Church is hitless in 14 at-bats this season, but he's driven in two runs, scored four times and stolen a bag.

Cardinals' Alec Burleson: Scratched Friday
Burleson was scratched from Friday's lineup with a wrist injury, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Burleson was initially slated to bat third and play left field, but a wrist injury will prevent him from doing so. Instead, Lars Nootbaar will slide over to left while Nathan Church enters the lineup and plays center field.

Cardinals' Pedro Pages: Getting breather
Pages is not in the lineup for Friday's game against the Rays.
After starting at catcher in the series opener Thursday, Pages will begin Friday's festivities on the bench. Yohel Pozo will be behind the dish and bat eighth for the Cardinals.

Cardinals' Nathan Church: Out of Friday's lineup
Church is not in the lineup for Friday's contest against the Rays.
Church started the first three games in center field upon his promotion from Triple-A Memphis, but he's now been on the bench for two of the past three games. The Cardinals will shift Lars Nootbaar over to center field and give Jordan Walker a start in right field.

Cardinals' Willson Contreras: Lifts 18th homer
Contreras went 2-for-5 with a solo home run in Thursday's 7-4 win over the Rays.
Contreras went deep in the seventh inning for his second homer in as many games. The 33-year-old has bounced back well after missing time with a bruised right foot, going 7-for-18 (.389) over four contests since he returned to the lineup. On the year, he has a .261/.345/.455 slash line with 18 homers, 68 RBI, 60 runs scored, four stolen bases and 29 doubles over 118 games.

Cardinals' JoJo Romero: Goes two innings for save
Romero allowed a hit and struck out three over two scoreless innings to earn the save in Thursday's 7-4 win over the Rays.
Romero was brought in for the eighth inning and threw 15 pitches in that frame. He stayed in for the ninth and added 11 more pitches to secure his fourth save of the season. It's encouraging usage for Romero, who had two losses, one blown save and two holds over hos previous four appearances, which made it look like his time as closer was over just weeks after it started. The lefty reliever has a 2.31 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 45:21 K:BB while adding 18 holds over 46.2 innings this season. Riley O'Brien has had a fairly stable August compared to Romero, which has pushed the Cardinals' late-inning situation into more of a committee approach.

Cardinals' Sonny Gray: Strikes out six in win
Gray (12-6) allowed three runs on six hits and a walk while striking out six over five innings to earn the win over the Rays on Thursday.
Gray wasn't dominant, but this was a much better effort than his last start, when he allowed six runs over five innings in a loss to the Yankees. Gray has given up 12 runs (11 earned) across 24 innings over his four starts in August, numbers right in line with his overall performance this year. He's at a 4.33 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 161:25 K:BB in 145.1 innings through 26 starts. The right-hander has a favorable matchup coming next week, as he's projected for a home start versus the Pirates.

Cardinals' Andre Pallante: Struggles continue during loss
Pallante (6-11) took the loss against the Marlins on Wednesday, surrendering five runs on eight hits and three walks while striking out four over 5.1 innings.
Pallante was tagged for at least one run in four of the six frames he worked and was lifted immediately after serving up a homer to Maximo Acosta in the sixth. It marked the sixth time in his last eight outings that the right-hander has allowed at least four earned runs, a stretch in which he's posted a 7.71 ERA and a 29:16 K:BB across 39.2 innings. Pallante will have a decent chance to right the ship in his next scheduled turn against the Pirates.

Church is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game in Miami.

Cardinals' Masyn Winn: Rare day off Wednesday
Winn is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's game in Miami.
Winn will get his first day off of August while he's in the midst of a 1-for-14 slump at the plate. Thomas Saggese will receive a start at shortstop as the Cardinals go for the series sweep.

Cardinals' Nolan Arenado: Could be cleared to hit soon
Arenado (shoulder) could be cleared to resume hitting as soon as Thursday or Friday, Daniel Guerrero of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Arenado has been rehabbing his right shoulder strain at the Cardinals' spring training complex in Florida and said Tuesday that he's "making strides" in his recovery. The veteran third baseman does not appear close to returning, however, as he has yet to resume hitting or throwing. The former is expected to occur later this week, and the latter could happen shortly thereafter. It seems unlikely at this point that Arenado will be back before September.
