Cardinals' Miles Mikolas: Can't escape fifth in loss
Mikolas (1-2) took the loss Sunday against the Diamondbacks, allowing five runs on four hits and two walks while striking out three over 4.2 innings.
Mikolas tossed four scoreless frames before the Diamondbacks rallied in the fifth and chased him out of the inning. He would allow a sacrifice fly to Jace Peterson and an RBI double to Jake McCarthy before walking consecutive hitters and exiting the game with the bases loaded. The bullpen did him no favors, allowing all three inherited runners to score. Mikolas didn't fool many in this one, registering just five whiffs on 75 pitches. It's been mixed results for Mikolas early on, as he'll take a 5.82 ERA and 1.43 WHIP into his next start, which projects to be against the division-leading Brewers next weekend.

Cardinals' Matthew Liberatore: Not available Sunday
Liberatore will be unavailable with an illness for the third straight day Sunday against the Diamondbacks, John Denton of MLB.com reports.
Liberatore was sent home Thursday with an illness that had him nauseous and will not be available to pitch against the Diamondbacks. The reliever, who currently has a 3.52 ERA, will reconvene with the team Monday as they travel to Oakland to face the Athletics, though his availability to pitch in that series is still unknown.

Cardinals' Masyn Winn: Not starting Sunday
Winn won't start Sunday against the Diamondbacks, John Denton of MLB.com reports.
Winn takes a seat for the fourth time in 16 games this season, though he's off to a hot start with a .349 average, five RBI and two steals. Brandon Crawford will start at shortstop and bat ninth Sunday.

Cardinals' Victor Scott: First break of 2024
Scott will not start Sunday against the Diamondbacks, John Denton of MLB.com reports.
Scott has started all 15 games this year for the Cardinals, but Mike Siani will man center field Sunday in Arizona. With center fielders Tommy Edman (wrist) and Dylan Carlson (shoulder) both sidelined, the rookie Scott has gotten a hefty workload, though he's only produced five hits from 57 plate appearances.

Cardinals' Jordan Walker: Gets Sunday break
Walker is not included in the starting lineup for Sunday's matchup against the Diamondbacks, John Denton of MLB.com reports.
Walker has started 13 of the Cardinals 15 games this year but will get a rest day Sunday. The outfielder is sporting a .182 average through 49 plate appearances, which is a lot lower than his .276 mark last season, but he still has plenty of time to get his bat going this year.

Cardinals' Masyn Winn: Notches second steal
Winn went 2-for-4 with an RBI and a stolen base Saturday in a loss to the Diamondbacks.
Winn continued his excellent start to the campaign Saturday, collecting his sixth multi-hit effort through 14 contests. The talented young shortstop also provided a boost to his fantasy managers with his second steal of the season. Through 47 plate appearances, Winn is slashing .349/.356/.465 with four RBI, five runs, a double and two triples.

Cardinals' Kyle Gibson: Fires six frames in loss
Gibson (1-2) took the loss against Arizona on Saturday, allowing four runs on six hits and three walks while striking out two batters over six innings.
Gibson fell behind 1-0 in the first frame but rebounded with four consecutive scoreless innings. However, he saw a quality start slip away in the sixth when Lourdes Gurriel's three-run homer gave the Diamondbacks a 4-1 lead. Gibson has provided a solid workload for St. Louis so far this season, going at least six innings in each of his three starts. However, his record now sits at 1-2, and his 6.16 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 11:6 K:BB over 19 frames aren't going to make any waves in fantasy circles.

Cardinals' Brendan Donovan: Racks up three hits
Donovan went 3-for-4 with a triple, one RBI and two runs scored in Friday's 9-6 win over the Diamondbacks.
Donovan took a turn at designated hitter in Lars Nootbaar's first game back from a rib injury. Defensively, Donovan is better suited to play second base than Nolan Gorman, and that's likely how the Cardinals will line up against right-handed pitchers going forward. Donovan is batting .298 with two home runs, nine RBI, 10 runs scored, four doubles and a triple over 13 contests as the leadoff hitter. He's also been caught stealing on his only attempt this season.

Cardinals' Giovanny Gallegos: Snags win Friday
Gallegos (2-0) earned the win Friday over the Diamondbacks, allowing two runs on a hit and a walk while striking out two over 1.1 innings.
Gallegos was called on in the fifth inning after Steven Matz got into a jam, and Gallegos ultimately allowed a game-tying home run to Eugenio Suarez. That was the extent of the damage, as Gallegos settled down for a scoreless sixth inning and picked up the win when the Cardinals took the lead for good in the seventh. The right-hander has allowed at least one run in three of his seven appearances so far, pitching to a 5.40 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 9:3 K:BB over 6.2 innings. He's added a save and two holds, but manager Oliver Marmol is no longer using a closer-by-committee approach, so Gallegos is unlikely to see as many save chances as in previous years.

Cardinals' Nolan Arenado: Drives in three runs
Arenado went 3-for-5 with a three-run homer in Friday's win over Arizona.
Arenado started the Cardinals' big day with a three-run jack in the first inning. He snapped an uncharacteristic 39-game homeless drought dating back to last season. The veteran third baseman boosted his season slash line to .276/.295/.379 with four extra-base hits and eight RBI through 61 plate appearances.

Cardinals' Ryan Helsley: Slams door for save
Helsley struck out two batters in a perfect inning and earned a save against the Diamondbacks on Friday.
Helsley worked quickly Friday, needing just 11 pitches to finish off the 9-6 win. He's now converted five of his six save chances through eight appearances. He lowered his ERA to 3.38 with a strong 9:1 K:BB. Helsley has punched out four batters in two perfect frames since taking a loss against the Phillies on April 8.

Cardinals' Steven Matz: Coughs up four runs
Matz yielded four runs (one earned) on eight hits over 4.2 innings during a no-decision against Arizona on Friday. He struck out two.
Matz repeatedly worked around potential danger through four shutout frames before Arizona woke up and scored six runs in the fifth inning, with four going on Matz's line. Fortunately for him, only one run was earned due to his own throwing error. Matz had allowed just two runs through 10.1 innings before Friday's start, which was his shortest outing of the year. The veteran southpaw is sporting a 1.80 ERA with an 8:3 K:BB over 15 frames. Matz is projected to start in Oakland next week.

Cardinals' Lars Nootbaar: Homers in return
Nootbaar went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer and a walk in Friday's win over Arizona.
Nootbaar made his season debut Friday after beginning the year on the injured list due to fractured ribs. He wasted little time making an impact, knocking a 110 mph, two-run shot off Diamondbacks starter Brandon Pfaadt in the third inning. Nootbaar finished the 2023 campaign with 14 long balls, 11 steals and a .784 OPS in 117 games. Now that he's healthy, the 26-year-old should see near-daily playing time.

Cardinals' Tommy Edman: Ramping up rehab program
Cardinals manager Oli Marmol said Friday that Edman (wrist) will ramp up his rehab process Monday, John Denton of MLB.com reports.
Edman was shut down during spring training after experiencing lingering pain in his surgically repaired right wrist. He started the season on the 10-day IL and has not yet been cleared for most baseball activities. Starting Monday, Edman and Dylan Carlson (shoulder) will hit off a tee and against soft-toss throws from coaches in the first step of their rehab process. With the Cardinals last season, Edman slashed .248/.307/.399 with 13 home runs and 47 RBI over 528 plate appearances.
