Herrera went 3-for-4 with a run and a stolen base in Wednesday's 4-2 win against the Pirates.
EDGE Analysis
Herrera and Nolan Arenado both had three hits for St. Louis in the win, combining for over half of the team's total base knocks.

The backstop has four multi-hit performances through 10 contests in June and is batting .314 (11-for-35) overall this month.

Herrera went 2-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base in Monday's 7-4 loss to the Astros.
EDGE Analysis
Herrera's two steals this year have come over his last eight games. The catcher has gone 8-for-31 (.258) in that span, but he has just two extra-base hits, one RBI and one run scored. For the season, he's batting .269 with a .691 OPS, three home runs, three doubles, 16 RBI and 15 runs scored over 150 plate appearances. While there hasn't been a lot of power in his bat, Herrera has hit well enough to maintain the starting job over Pedro Pages while Willson Contreras (forearm) remains out.

Herrera went 0-for-4 with a stolen base in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Cubs.

Herrera is in a bit of a slump, having gone 1-for-12 with four walks and four strikeouts over his last five games. The catcher's steal Sunday was the first of his career. He's added a .262/.336/.355 slash line with three home runs, 15 RBI and 14 runs scored over 122 plate appearances this season. Herrera continues to occupy a starting role behind the dish with Pedro Pages as backup while Willson Contreras (forearm) is likely out until mid-July.

EDGE Analysis
Herrera caught three innings earlier in the day after the Cardinals resumed Tuesday's suspended game in the bottom of the sixth and emerged with a 3-1 victory, so he'll just be getting some rest in Wednesday's regularly scheduled game. Pedro Pages will get the starting nod behind the dish.
