Shifts to 60-day injured list Fernandez (shoulder) was transferred to the 60-day injured list Sunday, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.
Impact The move has no impact on Fernandez's return timeline, as he's already been ruled out for the season with a strained shoulder. It clears a spot for the team to activate Johan Quezada (lat/illness) from the 60-day injured list.

Ruled out for season Fernandez (shoulder) has been ruled out for the remainder of the 2021 campaign, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.
Impact Fernandez landed on the 10-day injured list Friday after he exited Wednesday's nightcap with his shoulder injury, and manager Mike Shildt revealed that the right-hander won't return in 2021. The Cardinals are optimistic that Fernandez won't require surgery, although it's not yet clear whether he'll be available for the start of spring training in 2022.

To IL with shoulder strain Fernandez was placed on the 10-day injured list Friday with a right shoulder strain.
Impact The move is retroactive to Sept. 2, but it could be serious enough to sideline Fernandez through the rest of the regular season. Jake Woodford was recalled to take his place in the bullpen.

Leaves with lat injury Fernandez was removed from Game 2 of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Reds with a lat injury, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.
Impact Fernandez threw 14 pitches during the second inning before departing the contest with an athletic trainer. He recorded one out while giving up a run on a hit with a walk and a strikeout. The right-hander is expected to return to St. Louis for imaging in the coming days, so he'll likely end up on the injured list.

Returns to big club The Cardinals recalled Fernandez from Triple-A Memphis on Wednesday.
Impact St. Louis demoted Fernandez to Memphis on Sunday, but he'll be eligible to rejoin the big club less than a week later since Jack Flaherty (shoulder) was placed on the injured list in a corresponding move. Expect Fernandez to fill a low-leverage role out of the Cardinals bullpen after he submitted a 5.40 ERA and 1.91 WHIP in 18.1 innings over his previous 15 appearances in the big leagues this season.
