Dylan Carlson - Tending to sore right kneeCarlson's absence from the lineup for Sunday's game against the Phillies is due to a sore right knee, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

ImpactAccording to Denton, Carlson will be available off the bench, though the Cardinals would presumably prefer to stay away from him to afford him more recovery time from the knee issue. The Cardinals will wrap up their series with the Phillies on Monday, but it's unclear if one day off will provide sufficient time for Carlson to be ready to rejoin the lineup.

Odúbel Herrera - Looks to be reserve outfielderHerrera is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

ImpactThe Cardinals are bringing a right-handed starting pitcher (Andre Pallante) to the hill for the second straight day, but the lefty-hitting Herrera will still find himself on the bench. The righty-hitting Matt Vierling, who had previously occupied the short side of a platoon in center field, will draw his second straight start and appears to have supplanted Herrera as the top option at the position. Dating back to June 16, Herrera has delivered a dismal .146/.196/.146 batting line.

Didi Gregorius - Gets Sunday offGregorius is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

ImpactGregorius recently overcame a knee injury and started in each of the Phillies' last four games, going 2-for-13 with a triple, two walks and an RBI across those contests. He isn't believed to be dealing with a setback to his knee, so his absence from the lineup Sunday most likely amounts to a maintenance day.

Brendan Donovan - Remains out SundayDonovan (illness) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Phillies.

ImpactAccording to Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat, Donovan is away from the ballpark for the second day in a row while he battles symptoms that aren't specifically related to COVID-19. As a result, Donovan hasn't been placed on the COVID-19-related injured list, and the Cardinals maintain optimism that he'll be ready to go for Monday's series finale.

Dylan Carlson - Scratched from Sunday's lineupCarlson was scratched from the lineup ahead of Sunday's game against the Phillies due to unspecified minor tightness, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.

ImpactThe specifics of Carlson's injury aren't quite clear, but the Cardinals apparently don't view it as anything that will keep him out for more than a day or two. Lars Nootbaar will step in as the Cardinals' center fielder in place of Carlson, who has gone 7-for-33 (.212 average) with a home run and two RBI through his first nine games of July.
