Rotoworld Player News

Paul Goldschmidt

STL First Baseman #46

Paul Goldschmidt will remain out of the Cardinals’ lineup on Thursday against the Brewers.

Goldschmidt was out of the lineup on Wednesday for the first time since September 10th and it appears to not be just a one day absence. With the Cardinals eliminated and Nolan Arenado already shut down, it wouldn’t be a shock for St. Louis to also cut back on Goldschmidt’s playing time. With Goldschmidt on the bench, Luken Baker has shifted to first base and Juan Yepez has been starting as the designated hitter.
Zack Thompson

STL Relief Pitcher #57

Zack Thompson allowed two runs -- one earned -- with five strikeouts over 5 1/3 innings on Wednesday in a no-decision against the Brewers.

Thompson had pitched admirably through five scoreless innings, striking out five Brewers. He allowed a pair of doubles to start the sixth that brought a run in for Milwaukee. An error would bring the second run across, and Thompson’s day would be done with one out in the frame. The 25-year-old left-hander ends the season with a 4.34 ERA, 1.42 WHIP, and a 72/25 K/BB ratio across 66 1/3 innings.
Paul Goldschmidt

STL First Baseman #46

Paul Goldschmidt is not in the Cardinals’ lineup for Wednesday’s contest against the Brewers.

Goldschmidt takes a seat on Wednesday night for the first time since September 10 with rookie Luken Baker getting the nod at the cold corner. The 36-year-old veteran first baseman has posted an .806 OPS with 87 runs scored, 25 homers, 79 REBI and 11 stolen bases across 681 plate appearances in 152 games. He has one year left under contract with the Cardinals before reaching free agency.
Miles Mikolas

STL Starting Pitcher #39

Miles Mikolas pitched seven innings of one-run ball as the Cardinals beat the Brewers 4-1 on Tuesday

It’s the first time since July 27 that Mikolas has allowed fewer than two runs. He improved to 8-10 with a 4.82 ERA. Barring a change, he’ll make another start Sunday against the Reds.
Ryan Helsley

STL Relief Pitcher #56

Ryan Helsley struck out all three batters he faced for a save against the Brewers on Tuesday.

The Cardinals were calling Jojo Romero their closer before he got hurt, but it sure seems likely that Helsley would have reclaimed the job anyway. He’s allowed just one run in 10 2/3 innings since coming off the injured list on Sept. 1. He’s up to 50 strikeouts in 35 2/3 innings for the season.
Adam Wainwright

STL Starting Pitcher #50

Cardinals’ skipper Oli Marmol announced Tuesday that Adam Wainwright will not take the mound again this season.

That means that the 42-year-old hurler will go out on an epic high note — recording his 200th victory and hurling seven scoreless frames against the Brewers in what will be his final major league start. Wainwright finishes the disappointing season with a 5-11 record, 7.40 ERA, 1.90 WHIP and a 55/41 K/BB ratio across 101 innings in his 21 starts. He will remain with the team and will have batting gloves in his locker — with the possibility that the Cardinals could find him one final at-bat over the final week of the season.
Luken Baker

STL First Baseman #26

Luken Baker clobbered his second home run of the season on Sunday as the Cardinals were throttled by the Padres in San Diego.

The 26-year-old finally got the Cardinals on the board with a two-run blast off of Michael Wacha in the seventh inning — pulling the Cardinals to within 10 runs at 12-2. That would be Baker’s lone hit in three at-bats on the afternoon, though he also drew a walk. For the season, he’s hitting .217/.289/.319 with a pair of long balls and seven RBI in his first 75 plate appearances.
Drew Rom

STL Starting Pitcher #67

Drew Rom was absolutely obliterated in Sunday’s loss to the Padres, surrendering eight runs (six earned) on 11 hits in just 3 1/3 innings of work.

The 23-year-old hurler struck out four batters while allowing one base on balls during the forgettable outing. Juan Soto started the fun with a three-run blast in the opening inning, then the Padres tacked on two in the second, one in the third and then another pair while chasing him in the fourth. Rom has been disastrous through his first seven starts with the Cardinals, compiling a grotesque 7.98 ERA, 2.05 WHIP and a 25/16 K/BB ratio over 29 1/3 innings. He’ll attempt to finish the season on a high note when he does battle against the Reds at home on Saturday.
Masyn Winn

STL Shortstop #80

Masyn Winn went 1-for-3 with a two-run single on Saturday, leading the Cardinals to a 5-2 win over the Padres in an 11-inning tractor pull.

Winn put the Cardinals ahead in the seventh inning with a two-run single off Padres reliever Pedro Avila, which wound up being his lone hit in a low-scoring, extra-inning marathon in San Diego.
Ryan Helsley

STL Relief Pitcher #56

Ryan Helsley allowed one run over 1 1/3 innings on Saturday in a blown save against the Padres.

Helsley came on to put out an eighth-inning fire by picking Ha-Seong Kim off second base to end the frame, but was unable to put out a ninth-inning fire after walking three straight batters to open the frame. He got Xander Bogaerts to ground into a force out, which pushed the tying run across the plate, before striking out Fernando Tatis Jr. and Juan Soto to send the contest to extra innings. It was his fifth blown save of the season, but it could’ve ended up a lot worse, all things considered.
