Tuesday's contest between the St. Louis Cardinals and Cincinnati Reds has been postponed because of inclement weather. Right-handed starters Miles Mikolas and Sonny Gray were previously scheduled to start for the two teams on Tuesday. Fantasy managers should adjust their lineups accordingly and remove players from either team from their lineups. The Reds announced in a tweet that the game will be made up on Wednesday as part of a split doubleheader. First pitch for tomorrow's first game is ...

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Miles Mikolas (shoulder) returned from the injured list to make Friday's start and pitched well. He went five innings, allowing two runs (zero earned) on two hits and two walks while striking out five. Mikolas had only pitched in one game this season and spent most of the time dealing with shoulder and forearm injuries, but he seemed healthy in this one, throwing 84 pitches before departing. As long as he stays healthy, Mikolas should remain in the Cardinals...

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Miles Mikolas (shoulder) will be activated from the injured list to make the start on Friday. Mikolas has only pitched once this season due to a variety of arm troubles first in his forearm and then in his shoulder. He's back for a rotation that desperately needs him, as the Cardinals have seemingly been sending out 40-year-old lefties that throw 87 mph fastballs every game since the trade deadline. Mikolas will probably be on a pitch count, but he should ...

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Miles Mikolas (forearm) will make one more minor league rehab start before joining the big league club. In what was originally supposed to be his final rehab start, Mikolas gave up seven runs on 11 hits in 5 2/3 innings. The poor outing made the Cardinals add a rehab start to his progression to make sure he was fully ready to pitch in the big leagues. He's only pitched four innings for the Cardinals this year, but the team could surely use him in their ...

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Miles Mikolas (forearm) will make a rehab start on Saturday with Triple-A Memphis, according to Zachary Silver of MLB.com. Mikolas has made just one start this year, and has been sidelined with forearm tightness since the end of May. He didn't pitch in 2020, and in his last full season in 2019, Mikolas was 9-14 with a 4.16 ERA, 1.223 WHIP and 18.8 percent strikeout rate over 184 innings of work. Needless to say, managers shouldn't have much in the way of ...

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Miles Mikolas (forearm) will throw a live batting practice session on Tuesday and will go out on a rehab assignment after that, barring any setbacks. Mikolas has also been taking batting practice on the field, which is a good indicator that he's close to returning to game action. If all goes well on his rehab assignment, the right-hander could rejoin the team's rotation in mid-August. The 32-year-old hurler has made just one start this year because of ...

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Jack Flaherty (oblique) threw a bullpen session on Friday, while right-hander Miles Mikolas (forearm) threw live batting practice, according to manager Mike Shildt. If Mikolas progresses as expected, he could start a rehab assignment by the end of the month. Flaherty has been out since the end of May, and there remains no timetable for his return. Fantasy managers should continue stashing the Red Birds ace, but don't expect a return until around the middle ...

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Miles Mikolas (forearm) has resumed throwing bullpen sessions and hopes to go on a rehab assignment by the end of July. The Cardinals are being careful with Mikolas after he's already had two month-long injuries in 2021, so expect him to go on a longer minor league rehab assignment in order for him to build up his innings gradually. St. Louis could activate him before he's built up for a full starter's workload, possibly by the second half of August. The ...

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Miles Mikolas (elbow) told reporters on Saturday that he expects to be throwing bullpen sessions by the All-Star break if "all goes well from here," per beat writer Derrick S. Goold. He would then go on a rehab assignment around late July or early August before he's ready to rejoin the club. The 32-year-old right-hander is dealing with flexor tendon and shoulder issues and has been limited to just four innings this season. The team should provide an update ...

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Miles Mikolas (elbow) is not expected to be able to rejoin the team until August at the earliest. Cardinals President of Baseball Operations John Mozeliak said that August was the "best case" scenario for Mikolas, meaning that he'd have to experience no further setbacks. Mikolas made just one appearance this season, coming off the injured list for a start and going right back on it afterwards. He is undergoing stem cell therapy in an attempt to repair a ...
