Cardinals' Lars Nootbaar: Back in action Monday
Nootbaar (cramps) will start in right field and bat leadoff in Monday's game against the Marlins.
Nootbaar was forced out late in Sunday's 8-4 loss to the Yankees after dealing with some muscle cramping, but he was able to make enough progress overnight for the Cardinals to clear him to rejoin the lineup for the start of a three-game set in Miami. The 27-year-old had made each of his previous three starts in left field but will shift over to right Monday while Jordan Walker gets the evening off.

Cardinals' Lars Nootbaar: Exits early with muscle cramping
Nootbaar was removed after seven innings of Sunday's game against the Yankees due to muscle cramping, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Nootbaar went 3-for-4 with a run scored before Garrett Hampson came off the bench to replace him in left field in the top of the eighth. The 27-year-old doesn't seem to be dealing with a significant concern and could be ready to return to the lineup for Monday's game against the Marlins after getting rehydrated and resting up.

Cardinals' Lars Nootbaar: Back in action Wednesday
Nootbaar (knee) will start in center field and bat seventh in Wednesday's game versus the Rockies.
Nootbaar exited Monday's game after fouling a ball off his left knee and didn't play Tuesday, but he's feeling well enough to give it a go in Wednesday's series finale. The outfielder is slashing only .231/.222/.308 and hasn't drawn a walk in seven games since coming off the injured list.

Cardinals' Lars Nootbaar: Sitting out Tuesday
Nootbaar (knee) is not in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Rockies.
Nootbaar fouled a pitch off his knee in the third inning Monday and was eventually replaced by Jordan Walker later in the contest. He'll continue to rest Tuesday, as the Cardinals face left-hander Kyle Freeland. Walker is in right field and batting sixth for St. Louis. The Cardinals face another lefty in Austin Gomber for Wednesday's series finale before an off day Thursday, so Nootbaar could rest until the weekend.

Cardinals' Lars Nootbaar: Departs with bruised knee
Nootbaar left Monday's game against the Rockies due to a bruised left knee, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Nootbaar hit a foul ball off his knee during his at-bat in the third inning and was removed a few frames later. Jordan Walker replaced Nootbaar in right field. X-rays on Nootbaar's knee returned negative and he can be considered day-to-day, per Daniel Guerrero of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

Cardinals' Lars Nootbaar: Resting with lefty on mound
Nootbaar is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cubs.
The Cubs are sending a lefty (Shota Imanaga) to the hill for the series finale, so the left-handed-hitting Nootbaar will receive the night off. With Nootbaar on the bench, the Cardinals will roll out a starting outfield of Alec Burleson, Victor Scott and Jordan Walker from left to right.

Cardinals' Lars Nootbaar: Getting Sunday off
Nootbaar is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Padres.
After missing about three weeks due to a left costochondral sprain, Nootbaar made his return to the St. Louis lineup in Saturday's 8-5 win, starting in right field while going 1-for-5 with two strikeouts. He'll cede his spot in the outfield to Jordan Walker in the series finale, but Nootbaar should be a near-everyday player against right-handed pitching now that he's healthy again.

Cardinals' Lars Nootbaar: Returns from IL
The Cardinals reinstated Nootbaar (ribs) from the injured list Saturday.
Nootbaar has been on the injured list since mid-July with a left costochondral sprain but has played three rehab games in Double-A, going 4-for-14 with an RBI and a run scored. Now fully recovered, he'll reclaim an everyday role in the Cardinals' outfield and replace Jose Fermin on the active roster.

Cardinals' Lars Nootbaar: Embarking on rehab assignment
Nootbar (ribs) will begin his rehab assignment with Double-A Springfield on Wednesday, John Denton of MLB.com reports.
Nootbaar landed on the 10-day injured list just before the All-Star break due to a left costochondral sprain. He was initially limited to light tee work, but he has progressed enough in his recovery to get back on the field on a rehab assignment. Nootbaar could be back with the big club in early August, depending on how his injury reacts to a larger workload.

Cardinals' Lars Nootbaar: Rehab games around corner
Nootbaar (ribs) could begin a rehab assignment early next week, Daniel Guerrero of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Nootbaar began a hitting progression with soft toss and tee work Wednesday and looks to be trending in the right direction as he comes back from a left costochondral sprain. The outfielder has been sidelined since just before the All-Star break and shouldn't require too many rehab games before rejoining the Cardinals' active roster.

Cardinals' Lars Nootbaar: Unable to swing without discomfort
Cardinals president of baseball operations John Mozeliak said Monday that Nootbaar has not been able to swing a bat without feeling discomfort in his left ribcage, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
The team had hoped Nootbaar would be ready to begin a hitting progression Monday, but it appears the outfielder is not ready for that yet. A timetable for Nootbaar's return won't become clear until he's able to ramp things up without pain. Nootbaar landed on the 10-day injured list just over a week ago with a left costochondral sprain, an injury which had kept him in and out of the lineup since late June.

Cardinals' Lars Nootbaar: Hopes to resume hitting Monday
The Cardinals hope Nootbaar (ribs) will be ready to begin a hitting progression as soon as Monday, Daniel Guerrero of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Nootbaar landed on the 10-day injured list Sunday with a left costochondral sprain, an injury which had kept him in and out of the lineup since late June. The outfielder will be eligible for activation July 23, but it sounds unlikely that he will be ready on that date. With Nootbaar shelved, the Cardinals had Alec Burleson and Jordan Walker in the corner outfield spots in Friday's loss to the Diamondbacks.
