Iván Herrera - Withdraws from WBC Herrera will remain in camp with the Cardinals instead of playing for Panama at the World Baseball Classic, John Denton of MLB.com reports.
Impact Herrera withdrew from the WBC on Saturday, and he'll now turn his focus on competing for the backup catcher spot behind Willson Contreras. Herrera went 2-for-18 with one RBI, two walks and eight strikeouts across 22 plate appearances in the majors last season. He also hit .274/.381/.402 with six home runs, six stolen bases and 34 RBI in 65 games with Triple-A Memphis. Andrew Knizner is more likely to open the season as the Cardinals' backup catcher, but Herrera will try to force the issue with a strong spring.

Freddy Pacheco - Shut down with elbow issue Pacheco is dealing with elbow tightness and won't throw for the next couple weeks, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.
Impact Pacheco experienced the issue during a live batting practice session. While tests reportedly revealed nothing particularly concerning, he'll nonetheless back off from throwing for now. The 24-year-old right-hander reached Triple-A Memphis for the first time last season, posting a 2.27 ERA and 32.6 percent strikeout rate in 35.2 innings.

Paul DeJong - Dealing with dead arm DeJong is dealing with dead arm, but the Cardinals aren't particularly concerned, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.
Impact The issue is being framed as nothing more than the usual soreness that affects many players at the start of camp. DeJong won't throw Saturday and won't take the field in game action for a few days, but he's able to serve as the designated hitter. The Cardinals hope he'll play the field by next weekend.

Dylan Carlson - Put on 12 pounds of muscle Carlson said Wednesday that he put on 12 pounds of muscle over the winter, John Denton of MLB.com reports.
Impact Carlson reported to Cardinals camp in Florida at 205 pounds, and he said he was able to bulk up via intensive weight room workouts and a 4,500-calorie diet. This is going to be a prove-it type of season in many ways for the 24-year-old former top prospect, who struggled to a .236/.316/.380 batting line with eight home runs and five stolen bases over 128 regular-season games in 2022. He's trying to fend off teammate Tyler O'Neill for the starting center field job in St. Louis.

Giovanny Gallegos - Adjusting to pitch clock Gallegos is working on adjusting to MLB's new pitch timer, John Denton of MLB.com reports.
Impact Gallegos had one of the slowest paces in all of baseball in 2022, but the new rules for the 2023 season will force him to adjust. "It's hard for me. It's a new experience and a big challenge for me," Gallegos said. "I am trying to make some adjustments about the timing, but it's a big change." The 31-year-old reliever has often worked in a high-leverage role for the Cardinals, and he figures to fill a similar spot in the bullpen this year, as long as the pace-of-play changes don't have negative impact on his effectiveness. Ryan Helsley still figures to see the majority of the save chances.
