Kyle Gibson - Takes loss Saturday Gibson (7-4) allowed two runs on six hits and three walks while failing to record a strikeout over five innings, taking the loss Saturday versus the Nationals.
Impact The Nationals were able to stake out a 2-0 lead on Gibson's watch, and the Cardinals' bullpen made sure their starter would not get off the hook. Gibson has posted a 17:9 K:BB over 20.2 innings across his last four starts, allowing 10 runs in that span. That's just a little worse than his 3.97 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 102:46 K:BB for the year would indicates, marks he's achieved in 113.1 innings across 20 starts. The veteran right-hander is projected to make his next start on the road versus the Cubs.

Paul Goldschmidt - Homers in extra-inning loss Goldschmidt went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run in Friday's 10-8 extra-inning loss to the Nationals.
Impact Goldschmidt tried to spark a comeback for the Cardinals after they fell behind in the top of the 10th inning, but his homer was the team's last scoring play of the day. The first baseman has homered twice and added two doubles over his last five contests, though he's also struck out seven times in that span. On the year, he's at a .229/.288/.382 slash line through 99 games while adding 15 homers, 40 RBI, 49 runs scored, 16 doubles and six stolen bases. He's been a bit better in July, slashing .244/.262/.463 over 19 games this month.

Nolan Arenado - Smacks homer Friday Arenado went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run and a walk in Friday's 10-8 extra-inning loss to the Nationals.
Impact Arenado has gone just 5-for-25 (.200) since the All-Star break, but three of those hits are homers. He's also added four walks in that seven-game span. The third baseman is up to 11 homers, 45 RBI, 41 runs scored, one stolen base, 14 doubles and a .266/.322/.393 slash line through 97 contests, and it looks like his power is trending in the right direction.

Ryan Fernandez - Takes extra-inning loss Fernandez (1-3) allowed four runs (three earned) on two hits and two walks while striking out two over one inning, taking the extra-inning loss Friday versus the Nationals.
Impact Fernandez wasn't able to hold back the Nationals' 10th-inning rally. After allowing one run across 16 innings from June 9 to July 7, the reliever has permitted six runs (five earned) over his last 6.2 innings. He's now at a 2.66 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 47:20 K:BB while adding a save, a blown save and 10 holds through 47.1 innings on the year. While he's certainly earned looks in high-leverage spots, his 3.8 BB/9 will likely continue to limit his effectiveness.

Masyn Winn - Goes deep in loss Winn went 2-for-5 with a home run and three RBI in Friday's extra-innings loss to Washington.
Impact Winn put the Cardinals on the board with a two-run shot in the third inning and later hit an RBI single in the fourth. The young shortstop has multiple hits in six of his last 10 games. However, he's now gone 16 consecutive contests without attempting a steal. Winn boosted his slash line to .285/.332/.410 with 28 extra-base hits and 36 RBI through 95 games.

Sonny Gray - Yields five runs Gray allowed five runs on seven hits and three walks over five innings in a no-decision Friday. He struck out seven during the extra-innings loss against Washington.
Impact Gray gave up at least one run in three separate innings and never really settled in against the Nationals. He's given up at least three runs in five straight outings, posting a brutal 6.67 ERA during that span. On the bright side, he also turned in a strong 35:5 K:BB during those five starts. This rough patch has driven Gray's season ERA up from 2.81 to 3.79 across 111.2 frames. His next outing is lined up to be at home against Texas.
