Iván Herrera - Added to big-league roster The Cardinals recalled Herrera from Triple-A Memphis on Sunday, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

Willson Contreras - Placed on injured list The Cardinals placed Contreras (finger) on the 10-day injured list Sunday, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.
Impact The 32-year-old fractured the middle finger on his right hand when he was hit by a pitch Saturday against the Twins, so his move to the injured list was to be expected. It's unclear how long Contreras is expected to be sidelined, but he's likely to be out beyond the 10-day minumum.

Sonny Gray - Loses third straight start Gray (11-9) allowed five runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out seven over six innings to take the loss versus the Twins on Saturday.
Impact Trevor Larnach hit a pair of home runs off Gray, accounting for four of the five runs on the right-hander's line. It was a third straight loss for Gray, who has given up 13 runs across 16 innings with a 22:7 K:BB in that span. For the season, he's now at a 4.07 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 175:36 K:BB through 141.2 innings over 24 starts. Gray will look to right the ship in his next start, which is projected to be at home versus the Padres.

Iván Herrera - Slated for call-up The Cardinals are expected to recall Herrera from Triple-A Memphis on Sunday, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Impact Willson Contreras suffered a fractured finger on Saturday and will require a stint on the injured list, opening up a spot on the 26-man roster for Herrera. The 24-year-old will mix in with Pedro Pages behind the dish while Contreras is sidelined. In 191 big-league plate appearances this season, Herrera is slashing .279/.340/.378 with three home runs and four stolen bases.

Impact Contreras was hit in the hand by a pitch in the fourth inning of Saturday's game and was replaced at DH the next time through the order. After undergoing testing, the catcher was diagnosed with a fractured finger and will require a stint on the IL.

Tommy Pham - Sitting again Saturday Pham is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Twins.
Impact Pham will sit Saturday for a second straight game. He's struggled from the plate in August, slashing .176/.283/.314 with four runs scored, one home run and six RBI across 60 plate appearances. Alec Burleson, Victor Scott and Lars Nootbaar will man the outfield for the Cardinals.

Victor Scott - Adds another steal Scott went 0-for-3 with a walk, one RBI, a stolen base and one run scored in Friday's 6-1 win over the Twins.
Impact Scott wasn't able to build on his three-hit effort from Thursday, but he stole a base for the second game in a row. Speed is his biggest positive, though he's posted a .183 on-base percentage through 115 plate appearances in the majors this year, which is a big reason why he's been limited to four steals. He's been a bit better since his Aug. 4 call-up, slashing .208/.240/.333 over 15 games since he returned to the majors.
AUGUST 24 • ROTOWIRE
Paul Goldschmidt - Posts eighth steal Goldschmidt went 0-for-4 with a walk and a stolen base in Friday's 6-1 win over the Twins.
Impact Goldschmidt wasn't able to shake his slump at the plate after receiving an off day Thursday. He's gone just 3-for-31 (.097) over his last eight contests, striking out eight times in that span. The first baseman's now at a .226/.286/.383 slash line with 19 home runs, eight steals, 49 RBI and 59 runs scored through 122 games, putting him on pace for his worst numbers in a full season since his injury-shortened 2014 campaign.
AUGUST 24 • ROTOWIRE
Willson Contreras - Three hits, steal in win Contreras went 3-for-5 with a double, a stolen base and one run scored in Friday's 6-1 win over the Twins.
Impact The theft was Contreras' fifth of the year, putting him one shy of matching his career high. The catcher has hit well lately, batting .319 (15-for-47) with five extra-base hits over his last 12 contests. He's up to a .263/.379/.470 slash line with 15 homers, 36 RBI, 48 runs scored and 17 doubles across 83 games this season. He continues to be quietly consistent while playing nearly every day between catcher and designated hitter.
