The Cardinals want to keep Nolan Gorman in the lineup most of the time, so the 23-year-old Saggese will return to Triple-A, probably until someone gets hurt. He impressed in hitting .341 with a homer and four doubles in 41 at-bats, and there’s a good chance he’ll finish the season as one of the Cardinals’ starting infielders.

Arenado was responsible for the Cardinals’ lone run of the contest when he lifted a run-scoring double off the left-field wall in the opening frame. The 34-year-old third baseman’s long-term future remains up in the air since it remains a realistic possibility he’s moved to a contender in the coming months. He’s off to a decent start this season, batting .255 with three homers, 13 RBI and one steal through 27 games.

Pallante was left on the hook for the loss during Monday’s series opener when he surrendered a solo homer to Jose Trevino and a go-ahead triple to Noelvi Marte a couple frames later. He finished with four strikeouts and only issued two walks. He’ll carry a respectable 4.13 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 20/12 K/BB ratio across 32 2/3 innings (six starts) into a home outing on Saturday against the red-hot Mets.

This is the third of those four absences to come against a righty. The Cardinals are prioritizing the development of Nolan Gorman and Jordan Walker for now, leaving Burleson on the outside looking in. It also obviously hasn’t helped that Burleson is without a homer in 83 plate appearances this season.

Vientos’s homer came on a 65-mph fastball from Amed Rosario in the ninth. Mets fans were actually rooting against it, since it denied Brandon Nimmo the chance of coming up with multiple men on base to add to his total of nine RBI. It was Vientos’s third homer in 109 plate appearances this season. His numbers are on the way up — he’s hitting .320 in his last 13 games — but he’s still not really crushing the ball, at least against actual major league pitchers, like he did last year.

Jung is back at third base and batting sixth for Monday’s series opener at Globe Life Field following an early exit from Sunday’s showdown against the Giants with a right finger laceration. The fact that he’s already back in the lineup seems to indicate that the Rangers aren’t too concerned, which has to give fantasy managers confidence ahead of weekly lineup locks.

Shaw has gotten off to a slow start at Iowa, hitting just 5-for-26 in his first seven games. However, he has five walks and just one strikeout, and will most likely quickly show that he is too talented to remain at that level for long. It may just take another few weeks before that works itself out, which makes him hard to stash in most league types.
