Contreras fractured the middle finger on his right hand during Saturday's game against the Twins and will be placed on the injured list, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

Contreras was hit in the hand by a pitch in the fourth inning of Saturday's game and was replaced at DH the next time through the order. After undergoing testing, the catcher was diagnosed with a fractured finger and will require a stint on the IL. While he's sidelined, Pedro Pages should see plenty of work behind the dish and Ivan Herrera will likely be recalled from Triple-A Memphis to back Pages up.
