Cardinals News
The St. Louis Cardinals' promising rookie JJ Wetherholt is making headlines with his incredible 30/20 pace, but the team is reeling after a disappointing series loss to the Pirates, highlighted by a 2-6 defeat in their last game. With the bats cooling down, the return of Tyler Nootbaar could be just what this lineup needs to spark some offense. Adding to the chaos, Friday's game against the Reds was postponed, forcing a doubleheader on Saturday,weather permitting. The Cardinals' recent struggles, particularly their declining production from the bottom of the order, raise concerns, especially with Victor Scott II's development stalling against Major League pitching. The Cardinals sit at 28-21 and need to regroup quickly to stay competitive in the division.
