Slated to begin rehab assignment Carlson (hamstring) will begin a rehab assignment at Double-A Springfield on Friday, Rob Rains of StLSportsPage.com reports.
Impact Carlson suffered a hamstring tear in late May, but he's been working out recently and will return to game action in the minors this weekend. While it's not clear how many rehab games the 23-year-old will appear in, it seems likely that he'll be able to rejoin the Cardinals this weekend or sometime next week.

Cardinals look to continue win streak, take on the Cubs

Workout goes well Carlson (hamstring) felt good Tuesday after swinging and taking part in straight-ahead sprints Monday, John Denton of MLB.com reports.
Impact Carlson is just past the halfway point of what was originally expected to be a two-week absence with a torn hamstring. He'll run in arcs and sprint around the bases to further test his hamstring soon, at which point his expected return date should become clearer. He won't be back as soon as Friday, as he won't travel with the team to Chicago at the start of their weekend series, but it's possible he joins his teammates over the weekend.

Runs on field Carlson (hamstring) ran on the field Monday for the first time since landing on the injured list one week prior, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.
Impact Carlson was expected to miss approximately two weeks, so seeing him run one week after suffering the injury fits with that timeline. It's unclear if he'll need a rehab assignment before he's cleared to return.

Could return in two weeks The Cardinals are hope Carlson (hamstring) can return from the 10-day injured list in approximately two weeks, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.
Impact The news fits with earlier reports that revealed that Carlson's hamstring strain was diagnosed as Grade 1 to 2. It looks as though he'll miss more than the minimum 10 days but could be back not long after that. Corey Dickerson and Brendan Donovan should see more playing time in the outfield corners until he returns, with DH/1B/OF Juan Yepez also in the mix.

MRI reveals low-grade tear Cardinals president of baseball operations said Carlson, who was placed on the 10-day injured list Monday, was diagnosed with a Grade 1 to 2 left hamstring tear after undergoing an...
Impact St. Louis isn't providing a timeline for Carlson's return, but he could still be in line to miss more than the minimum 10 days even if his strained hamstring veers closer to Grade 1 than Grade 2 in terms of severity. The Cardinals are deploying Corey Dickerson and Brendan Donovan as their starting corner outfielders in Monday's game against the Blue Jays, and the two should be in store for everyday roles against right-handed pitching while both Carlson and Tyler O'Neill (shoulder) are on the shelf.

Placed on IL The Cardinals placed Carlson on the 10-day injured list Monday with a left hamstring strain.
Impact He'll be replaced on the 26-man active roster by Lars Nootbaar, whom the Cardinals recalled from Triple-A Memphis in a corresponding move. Along with Nootbaar, Corey Dickerson, Juan Yepez and Brendan Donovan are the main candidates to pick up starts at either corner-outfield spot while Carlson and Tyler O'Neill (shoulder) are on the shelf. The timing of the move to the IL is especially disappointing for Carlson, who had rebounded from a wretched April to produce a .314/.351/.486 slash line through his first 20 games of May.

Out Sunday, could be IL-bound Carlson (hamstring) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Pirates, John Denton of MLB.com reports.
Impact Given that he exited Saturday's 5-4 win with a tight left hamstring along with the fact that the Cardinals and Pirates are closing their series Sunday with a game that begins at 11:35 a.m. ET, Carlson's absence from the lineup comes as little surprise. How much time he misses beyond Sunday is more uncertain, as Carlson acknowledged that his tight hamstring feels "good, but different," per Denton. The Cardinals have not yet ordered up an MRI for Carlson, but he could be placed on the 10-day injured list prior to Monday's home game against the Blue Jays if he's not yet able to run without discomfort. If Carlson were to join Tyler O'Neill (shoulder) on the IL, the Cardinals would have regular roles in the corner outfield available for both Corey Dickerson and Brendan Donovan.

Exits with hamstring injury Carlson left Saturday's game versus the Pirates with left hamstring tightness, John Denton of MLB.com reports.
Impact Carlson started the game in center field, notching a single in his first at-bat before pulling up lame after a flyball out in the top of the third. Tommy Edman has shifted over to center field while Nolan Gorman has entered at second base. The severity of the injury is not yet known, but more information will likely be available after the game.
