Mikolas was ejected from Thursday's game against the Cubs, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

EDGE Analysis

Mikolas threw at Ian Happ on consecutive pitches after Happ hit Willson Contreras in the head on his backswing. The second offering hit Happ, and Mikolas was ultimately tossed from the game. Because Mikolas completed 0.2 innings and threw only 14 pitches, he could be an option to start on short rest.

Mikolas did not factor into the decision Saturday, allowing five runs on 11 hits and one walk over five innings against the Cubs. He struck out three.

EDGE Analysis

Mikolas struggled with his command all afternoon, needing 102 pitches to get through five innings while surrendering a season-high 11 hits. It marked the seventh time this season that the right-hander has allowed at least five runs in a start, and he's now recorded three or fewer strikeouts in three straight. Mikolas will look to turn things around when the Cardinals take on these same Cubs next weekend in St. Louis.

Mikolas (6-5) earned the win over Miami on Monday, allowing three runs on seven hits and striking out three batters over six innings. He did not issue any walks.

EDGE Analysis

Mikolas was coming off a start against Washington just three days earlier during which he tossed only 34 pitches in a game that was suspended due to inclement weather. Because of the brief nature of that outing, the right-hander was able to take the mound again Monday on very short rest, and he handled a full workload with 92 pitches across six frames. Mikolas gave up a pair of homers but managed to hold the Marlins to just three runs and notch his eighth quality start of the campaign. The veteran hurler hasn't quite matched his strong numbers from last season, but he's been a mostly steady arm for St. Louis with a 4.14 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 83:24 K:BB over a team-high 121.2 innings.

Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol said Mikolas could be an option to start Monday's series opener versus the Marlins after the right-hander tossed only 34 pitches in his start Friday against the Nationals before the game was suspended in the bottom of the third inning due to inclement weather, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Before rain descended on Busch Stadium, Mikolas was on his way to a strong start, as he struck out two over three perfect innings. Fantasy managers who deployed Mikolas in weekly lineups should see his statistics from Friday show up once the suspended game is completed Saturday, but the right-hander won't be able to qualify for the win even though the Cardinals held a 1-0 lead at the time play was suspended. Mikolas' workload from Friday will also take him out of the mix for pitching again this weekend, but he looks like he'll be ready to go on three days' rest Monday if the Cardinals elect to go that route.

Mikolas (5-5) picked up the win Saturday, allowing four hits over seven scoreless innings in a 3-0 victory over the White Sox. He struck out six without walking a batter.

EDGE Analysis

All four hits were singles, and Chicago couldn't even get a runner past second base against the veteran right-hander. Mikolas tossed 71 of 95 pitches for strikes en route to his first win since May 30 and sixth quality start of the year. He'll take a 4.23 ERA and 78:24 K:BB through 112.2 innings into the second half.

Mikolas yielded four runs on four hits and two walks over 6.1 innings in Monday's loss to Miami on Monday. He struck out two and did not factor in the decision.

EDGE Analysis

Mikolas looked solid after coughing up two runs in the opening frame until the Marlins tagged him with two more in the seventh inning. He's given up at least four runs in four of his last five appearances, raising his season ERA to 4.51 through 105.2 innings. Mikolas is 0-3 during that stretch and hasn't won since May 30. His next outing is lined up to be on the road against the White Sox this weekend.

Mikolas did not factor into the decision Wednesday, allowing five runs on seven hits and three walks over 5.2 innings against the Astros. He struck out four.

EDGE Analysis

Mikolas was sharp in his last outing (two earned runs through seven innings) but had a few extra days off due to St. Louis' trip to London and struggled to find a rhythm versus Houston. It was the sixth time this season that the right-hander has given up at least five runs, and he currently sports a 4.44 ERA, which would be his highest mark in five seasons with the Cardinals. While Mikolas' ERA could use some work, his 70:22 K:BB is on par with previous seasons and his BABIP (.323) is higher than ever, suggesting he's been the recipient of some bad luck so far this year. Either way, Mikolas' spot in the rotation is secure, and he'll look to bounce back in his next start, which is tentatively scheduled during a four-game set in Miami.

Mikolas (4-5) took the loss Wednesday, giving up two runs on eight hits and a walk over seven innings as the Cardinals were blanked 3-0 by the Nationals. He struck out three.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran righty rebounded from a couple shaky outings to deliver his sixth quality start of the season, but he got no help from his offense as he fell to 0-4 in June. After posting a 1.89 ERA in May, Mikolas has stumbled to a 5.63 mark through 24 innings this month, but he'll try to take some momentum into his next outing, which is likely to come at home next week against the Astros.

Mikolas (4-4) took the loss Friday, coughing up six runs on eight hits and a walk over six innings as the Cardinals fell 6-1 to the Mets. He struck out one.

EDGE Analysis

Only two of the hits off the right-hander went for extra bases, including a Daniel Vogelbach solo shot in the sixth inning, but the singles came in bunches for the Mets as they scored three runs in the first and two more in the third. Mikolas has been tagged for 11 runs in 12 innings over his last two starts on the heels of a 10-start stretch in which he sported a 2.24 ERA, but he'll look to get back on track when he next takes the mound, which could happen on the road next week against the Nationals.

Mikolas (4-3) took the loss Saturday, allowing five runs on seven hits and two walks over six innings against the Reds. He struck out two.

EDGE Analysis

The Reds got to Mikolas early, starting with a two-out single from Tyler Stephenson that led to a three-run second inning for Cincinnati. It was more of the same in the third, as the right-hander surrendered a leadoff triple to Matt McLain to start the inning before hitting Jonathan India with a pitch in the next at-bat. Despite giving up five runs early, Mikolas still made it through six innings for the fifth time in his last six starts while taking his second straight loss. He'll look to right the ship next weekend when the Cardinals travel to New York to take on the Mets.
