ST. LOUIS CARDINALS NEWS

Brendan Donovan - Swats homer No. 10 Donovan went 1-for-3 with two walks, a solo home run, a second run scored and a stolen base in Friday's 6-1 win over the Twins.

Impact He took Jorge Alcala deep in the sixth inning, snapping a 27-game homer drought. Donovan has remained a fixture in the Cardinals' lineup this season, but the results have been less than stellar -- the 27-year-old is slashing .266/.333/.393 with 10 home runs, four steals, 50 runs and 56 RBI in 121 contests.

Andre Pallante - Sharp in sixth win Pallante (6-6) picked up the win in Friday's 6-1 victory over the Twins, allowing one run on five hits and two walks over seven innings. He struck out five.

Impact It looked like it might be a short night for Pallante when four of the first five Minnesota batters reached base in the second inning, but the right-hander put out the fire and then didn't let another runner get into scoring position, retiring the last 13 batters he faced. Pallante has a 3.31 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 24:14 K:BB through 35.1 innings since the All-Star break, but with Lance Lynn (knee) closing in on a return from the IL, his time in the rotation could be drawing to a close. If he gets another turn, Pallante lines up to face the Padres at home next week.

Tommy Pham - Sitting out Friday Pham is not in the lineup for Friday's game in Minnesota.

Impact He had started the last two contests versus right-handers but he'll take a seat Friday against righty David Festa. Pham got off to a nice start with the Cardinals but is just 2-for-27 over his last 10 games. Alec Burleson will play left field Friday and Matt Carpenter will be the designated hitter.

Alec Burleson - Gets on base four times Burleson went 2-for-3 with two walks and a run scored in Thursday's 3-0 win over the Brewers.

Impact Burleson has gone 14-for-46 (.304) over his last 12 contests, adding two home runs, two doubles, six RBI, one stolen base and seven runs scored in that span. He hasn't been known for patience at the plate lately -- he hadn't drawn a walk since Aug. 3 before getting two free passes Thursday. Despite a 4.6 percent walk rate this season, Burleson has been one of the Cardinals' top hitters with a .278/.313/.462 slash line, 21 home runs, 70 RBI, 59 runs scored and eight stolen bases over 461 plate appearances. That said, he's back to being a strong-side platoon player after earning an everyday role in mid-June. He has sat out against the last three southpaws the Cardinals have faced.

Victor Scott - Breaks out with three hits, steal Scott went 3-for-4 with a double, a stolen base and one run scored in Thursday's 3-0 win over the Brewers.

Impact Scott had gone 4-for-27 over his previous nine contests before putting together a strong effort from the bottom of the order in this game. His steal Thursday was his third of the campaign in 35 games, as his prolific speed (29 steals in 74 games with Triple-A Memphis) has been hampered by his trouble getting on base in the majors. Even with the three-hit effort, Scott is batting .144 on the year with a .411 OPS, one home run, six RBI and eight runs scored over 111 plate appearances.

AUGUST 23 • ROTOWIRE

Andrew Kittredge - Grabs second win Kittredge (2-4) struck out one in a perfect inning to earn the win Thursday over the Brewers.

Impact Kittredge kept the game scoreless in the top of the seventh inning, and the Cardinals scored all three of their runs in the bottom of the frame. From July 20 to Aug. 9, Kittredge posted a 7.1-inning scoreless streak, but he had given up three runs over his previous two appearances before Thursday's scoreless outing. He's at a 3.44 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 50:16 K:BB through 52.1 innings while adding a save, 30 holds and six blown saves this year.

AUGUST 23 • ROTOWIRE

Ryan Helsley - Leads majors with 39 saves Helsley allowed one hit during a scoreless ninth inning to pick up the save Thursday against the Brewers. He did not strike out a batter.

Impact Helsley allowed a one-out single but otherwise breezed in closing out the three-run victory. It marked his league-leading 39th save of the season, more than doubling his previous career high of 19 back in 2022. Helsley has been especially dominant over his last 18 games, posting a 1.93 ERA and 1.18 WHIP with 18 strikeouts, 12 saves (14 opportunities) and three wins over 18.2 innings.

AUGUST 23 • ROTOWIRE

Miles Mikolas - Right's ship with scoreless outing Mikolas did not factor into the decision Thursday, allowing two hits and a walk over six scoreless innings against the Brewers. He struck out three.

Impact Mikolas held the Brewers in check, allowing merely one walk after the first inning during one of his most effective outings of the season. He entered Thursday's contest having allowed 25 runs in 31 innings (7.26 ERA) over his last six starts but kept the Brewers off the board in posting his first quality start since July 8. While Mikolas rewarded the Cardinals with a solid effort, his teammates failed to return the favor, waiting until after he was removed from the game to put the winning runs on the board. He'll look to continue this momentum into his next scheduled start, slated to take place at home in a tough matchup against the Padres.
