Alec Burleson - Suffers thumb fractureBurleson fractured his left thumb while stealing third base Tuesday against Milwaukee, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

ImpactAfter jamming his hand while sliding into third, Burleson's injury will put an early end to his 2023 campaign. He'll finish the season with a .242/.298/.385 slash line while slugging eight homers and tallying 35 RBI across 343 plate appearances. Luken Baker entered Tuesday's game as Burleson's replacement and could see an uptick in DH opportunities while Burleson and Nolan Gorman (hamstring) are out.

Alec Burleson - Exits after jamming fingersBurleson was removed from Tuesday's game against the Brewers after jamming the fingers on his left hand while sliding into third base, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

ImpactBurleson was able to successfully steal third base and eventually score during the first inning, but the Cardinals took him out of the game and will presumably perform an X-ray on Burleson's hand. More details should come in the near future, but for now fantasy managers should consider Burleson day-to-day.

Adam Wainwright - Won't start this weekendWainwright will not make his next scheduled start this weekend in San Diego, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

ImpactWainwright notched his 200th career victory Monday versus the Brewers and it sounds like the Cardinals want him to go out on a high note. If the retiring right-hander does make another start this year, it would probably be during the final weekend of the regular season at home against the Reds.

Brice Turang - Takes seat versus leftyTurang is not in the lineup Tuesday versus the Cardinals.

ImpactAndruw Monasterio is playing second base and batting eighth as the Brewers match up against left-hander Drew Rom. Turang has slashed just .193/.281/.193 in 65 plate appearances versus lefties this year.

Christian Yelich - Out again with back issueYelich (back) remains out of the lineup Tuesday at St. Louis.

ImpactYelich has now started only one of the Brewers' last 11 games due to lingering back discomfort. Tyrone Taylor, Blake Perkins and Sal Frelick will canvass the outfield Tuesday versus the Cardinals and left-hander Drew Rom.
