Shelved with plantar fasciitis The Cardinals placed Bader on the 10-day injured list Monday due to plantar fasciitis in his right foot.
Impact St. Louis hadn't provided any indication that Bader was nursing any sort of injury during the club's weekend series with the Cubs, but he'll become the third St. Louis outfielder to head to the IL, joining Tyler O'Neill (hamstring) and Corey Dickerson (calf). The Cardinals called up Conner Capel from Triple-A Memphis to add a healthy body to the outfield, but the trio of Lars Nootbaar, Dylan Carlson and Brendan Donovan could be manager Oliver Marmol's preferred outfield configuration while Bader is on the shelf. The 28-year-old Bader currently ranks tied for sixth in the majors with 15 stolen bases on the season.

Three hits in Saturday's win Bader went 3-for-5 with a double and a run scored in Saturday's 11-2 win over the Red Sox.
Impact The Cardinals' outfield has gotten a bit crowded in the last week or so, but Bader has responded well by going 8-for-20 (.400) in his last five games. He's hit two triples and a double in that span to maintain a strong grip on the starting job in center field. Overall, he's up to a .270/.312/.392 slash line with 14 stolen bases, five home runs, 20 RBI, 34 runs scored, six doubles and three triples this season. Dylan Carlson will see the occasional start in center field to accommodate playing time for Brendan Donovan and Juan Yepez in right, but Bader's provided solid hitting in a regular role near the bottom of the order.

Impact Dylan Carlson shifted to center field while Juan Yepez took over in right for the final few innings. It's not clear what Bader did to prompt the benching, as he didn't even come to the plate in the bottom of the sixth, but Marmol indicated after the game he'd had a productive talk with the 28-year-old, and that he wouldn't face any further discipline. Expect Bader to be back in the starting nine Sunday for the series finale.
