Lars Nootbaar - Provides lone run off bench Nootbaar hit a solo home run in his lone at-bat in Sunday's 2-1 loss to the Dodgers.
Impact Nootbaar's eighth-inning blast off Daniel Hudson ended up being the Cardinals' lone run in the game. Nootbaar has dropped into a strong-side platoon role with the Cardinals committing to Jordan Walker in right field against left-handed pitchers. It's a fair role reduction -- Nootbaar hadn't homered since July 21 and has gone just 6-for-30 (.200) over 14 contests in August. He's now slashing .231/.322/.385 with eight homers, 24 RBI, 22 runs scored and five stolen bases through 268 plate appearances this year.

Sonny Gray - Fans six in loss Gray (11-8) allowed two runs on seven hits and three walks over five innings Sunday, striking out six and taking a loss against the Dodgers.
Impact Gray danced around a few threats through four shutout frames before allowing a pair of runs in the fifth inning. He's been tagged for eight runs in 10 innings over his last two starts, bumping his season ERA from 3.72 to 3.91. Sunday also marked the first time he lost a second straight start since June 6. Gray produced a 2.81 ERA through 14 starts but has registered an unsightly 5.68 ERA in nine starts since then. His next outing is projected to be in Minnesota.

Masyn Winn - Goes yard again Saturday Winn went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in Saturday's 5-2 win over the Dodgers.
Impact Winn has homered in back-to-back games against the Dodgers, and he's up to four long balls over 14 contests in August. The shortstop is batting .259 (15-for-58) over that span. For the season, he's at a .277/.327/.423 slash line with 11 homers, 43 RBI, 59 runs scored and 10 stolen bases through 114 games.

Alec Burleson - Three hits, stolen base in win Burleson went 3-for-4 with a two-run homer, two runs scored and a stolen base in Saturday's win over the Dodgers.
Impact Burleson singled and stole second in his first trip to the plate before coming home on a knock from Willson Contreras as the Cardinals tied the game at 1-1. The outfielder then launched a two-run shot off Bobby Miller in the third to put St. Louis on top and went on to reach three times in the contest. It marked the eighth three-hit effort of the campaign for Burleson and the second in his last five starts. For the month he's batting .255 (13-for-51) with three homers, seven RBI and nine runs scored.

Andre Pallante - Goes seven innings in win Pallante (5-6) picked up the win over the Dodgers on Saturday, allowing two runs on four hits and two walks over seven innings while striking out five.
Impact Pallante held his own against a deadly Dodgers lineup despite allowing the leadoff man to reach in four of his seven innings of work. The right-hander surrendered one run in the first and another in the fifth on a solo shot from Shohei Ohtani, but was able to hang on for his fifth win over the season and his first since June 28 against the Reds. Pallante has now allowed three or fewer runs in four of his last five starts, though he's also walked multiple batters in five straight. In the month of August he currently holds a 4.15 ERA to go along with an 11:8 K:BB.

Ryan Helsley - Secures 38th save Helsley picked up the save over the Dodgers on Saturday, striking out one over a perfect ninth inning.
Impact Helsley made short work of the middle of the Dodgers' lineup, retiring the side in order on just six pitches after entering the contest with a three-run lead in the ninth. It marked the 38th save for the right-hander, which leads the majors, and only the second time this month in which he didn't allow any hits or walks. Helsley has now converted each of his last five save opportunities, posting a 4:3 K:BB over that stretch.

Michael Siani - Cleared to swing Team doctors cleared Siani (oblique) to resume winging a bat, John Denton of MLB.com reports.
Impact Siani has been throwing and doing light fielding drills since undergoing a PRP injection Aug. 6, and he'll now be able to add swinging to his baseball activities. The center fielder hasn't played since Aug. 3 due to a strained right oblique but could be back before the end of August.

Steven Matz - One more rehab start needed Matz (back) will require one more minor-league rehab start before being activated from the 60-day injured list.
Impact Matz struck out six in 4.1 scoreless innings during a rehab outing with Triple-A Memphis on Friday, but hasn't been deemed ready to return. Despite being on the shelf since May 3, Matz shouldn't have any restrictions once activated from the injured list considering he threw 76 pitches Friday. Following the trade deadline acquisition of Erick Fedde, it's unclear who'll be the odd man out in the St. Louis rotation once Matz is healthy.
