Cardinals' right hander Adam Wainwright, 42, says he has thrown his final pitch
Eight days after winning his 200th game, 42-year-old Adam Wainwright said Tuesday he has thrown his final pitchSEPTEMBER 26, 2023 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Adam Wainwright - Won't pitch again Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol confirmed Tuesday that Wainwright (back/shoulder) will not pitch again this season, John Denton of MLB.com reports.
Impact Wainwright recorded his 200th major-league win last Monday versus the Brewers, but he's been dealing with back and shoulder discomfort ever since. The 42-year-old right-hander will remain on the active roster and could even take an at-bat over the final weekend of the regular season, but he has thrown his last pitch and is expected to formally announce his retirement in the coming weeks.

Zack Thompson - Start pushed to Wednesday Thompson will start Wednesday's game at Milwaukee, John Denton of MLB.com reports.
Impact Thompson had been lined up to work Tuesday's series opener versus the Brewers, but Miles Mikolas will now get that nod so that he can also potentially handle Sunday's season finale against the Reds back at Busch Stadium. Thompson, 25, has registered an overall 4.57 ERA, 1.44 WHIP and 67:24 K:BB in 61 innings (eight starts, 16 relief appearances) this year with St. Louis.

Miles Mikolas - Start pushed up to Tuesday Mikolas will start Tuesday's game in Milwaukee, John Denton of MLB.com reports.
Impact Mikolas has flip-flopped with Zack Thompson, who will now start Wednesday's game against the Brewers. Dakota Hudson is on tap for Thursday's series finale. This slight change to the schedule could allow Mikolas to fit in two more starts before the Cardinals' season comes to a close.

Luken Baker - Lifts second homer Baker went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run and a walk in Sunday's 12-2 loss to the Padres.
Impact Baker produced the Cardinals' lone scoring play with his seventh-inning blast. He's seen steadier playing time over the last week, going 4-for-17 (.235) over his last six games. The 26-year-old is batting .217 with two homers, seven RBI, six runs scored and a double across 76 plate appearances in the majors this year. With the Cardinals in last in the NL Central, he'll likely get some more at-bats over the final week of the campaign as part of the evaluation for next season's roster.

After his first career scoreless start, Rom has been tagged with 11 earned runs in just 6.2 innings over his last two outings. His ERA has shot up to 7.98 through 29.1 MLB frames. Rom is currently lined up to finish his 2023 campaign with a home matchup against the Reds.

José Fermín - Out of Sunday's lineup Fermin is not in the lineup for Sunday's game at San Diego, Jeff Sanders of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports.
Impact Fermin finds himself on the bench for the second straight game after he started the previous three contests. The 24-year-old has a .497 OPS in 43 plate appearances this season and should continue to see opportunities during the final week with Nolan Arenado (back) shut down.

Jordan Walker - Posts steal Saturday Walker went 1-for-5 with a stolen base and a run scored in Saturday's 5-2 extra-innings win over the Padres.
Impact Walker's hitting streak is up to nine games, a span in which he's gone 10-for-33 (.303). The rookie hasn't done a lot of running this year with seven steals in 11 attempts, and this was his first theft since Aug. 14. He's put together a solid campaign with a .274/.343/.448 slash line, 16 home runs, 48 RBI and 47 runs scored through 110 contests.

Casey Lawrence - Earns extra-innings win Lawrence (1-0) allowed two walks and struck out one over two scoreless and hitless innings to earn the extra-innings win over the Padres on Saturday.
Impact Lawrence got the ball in the 10th inning and stayed in for the 11th after the Cardinals pulled ahead. This was just his fourth scoreless appearance in 11 outings since he joined the Cardinals in mid-August, though he has been better in shorter assignments. Lawrence has a mediocre 5.64 ERA, 1.61 WHIP and 17:10 K:BB through 22.1 innings while adding four holds.

Ryan Helsley - Blows save Saturday Helsley allowed a run on three walks and struck out two over 1.1 innings, taking a blown save in Saturday's 5-2 extra-innings win over the Padres.
Impact Helsley was called upon for a four-out save opportunity, but he faltered in a wild ninth inning. He threw 15 of 30 pitches for strikes in this appearances. Helsley is now 12-for-17 in save chances this season while posting a 2.60 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 47:17 K:BB over 34.2 innings. He had pitched 8.1 scoreless innings and converted five saves since returning from a forearm injury before Saturday's sloppy outing.

Jake Woodford - Does alright as starter Woodford allowed a run on four hits and two walks while striking out one over 3.2 innings in a no-decision versus the Padres on Saturday.
Impact Woodford worked up to 78 pitches (46 strikes) and limited the damage to a Manny Machado RBI single in the first inning. This was Woodford's seventh start in 14 appearances, but his first major-league start since April, as shoulder injuries and stints in the bullpen and minors have kept him out of a starting role. He's now at a 5.09 ERA, 1.65 WHIP and 29:21 K:BB through 46 innings this season. It's uncertain if Woodford will start again in 2023 -- he was filling in for Adam Wainwright, who is expected to make his final career start at home versus the Reds next weekend.
