He'll reclaim his spot as the No. 2 catcher behind Andrew Knizner until Yadier Molina (knee) returns from the injured list.

Looks like new No. 1 catcher Romine will start at catcher and bat ninth in Thursday's game against Atlanta, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.
Impact Romine is behind the plate for the third time in four games, and at least for the time being, he appears to have unseated Andrew Knizner as the Cardinals' preferred option at catcher while Yadier Molina (knee) remains on the injured list. In his first two games with St. Louis, Romine has gone 1-for-7 with a walk.

Impact After getting called up from Triple-A Memphis on Monday, Romine started behind the plate in the first two games of the Cardinals' series with Atlanta and went 1-for-7 with a walk. Andrew Knizner will step in behind the dish Wednesday, but Romine looks as though he'll at least be part of a timeshare at catcher until No. 1 backstop Yadier Molina (knee) is ready to come off the injured list.
