The homer came off Brad Keller in the eighth. Burleson isn’t getting as many singles as usual lately, but he has six homers and 17 RBI in his last 17 games. Fantasy leaguers surely approve. Burleson is slugging .472 this season, up from .390 as a rookie in 2023 and .420 last season.

It looks to be nothing more than a routine night off for the speedy 24-year-old outfielder. Scott has done a decent job for the Cardinals this season, slashing .235/.319/.323 with four homers, 28 RBI and 22 stolen bases across 299 plate appearances. Garrett Hampson will draw a rare start in center field in his stead and will bat ninth against Cubs’ southpaw Matthew Boyd.

No surprise here after Arenado was scratched from Saturday’s lineup with a right shoulder impingement. The 34-year-old defensive wizard will undergo further evaluation on Sunday to determine the severity of the issue, but there’s optimism from the club that he’ll avoid a trip to the injured list. It’ll be rookie Thomas Saggese drawing another start at the hot corner in his place. There should be a definitive update on his outlook at some point leading into Tuesday’s series opener against the Nationals.

The Cardinals scored five times off Brad Keller in the eighth, with Pozo delivering the big blow after hitting for Pedro Pagés. Pozo is batting .329/.333/.506 with three homers in 81 plate appearances since being called up Apr. 7. The Cardinals love Pagés’ defense too much to make a switch behind the plate, but at least they’ve been willing to make the late-game change when they need offense.

Trout started the game with a solo shot off of Kevin Gausman in the first inning, but he went quiet from there. The 33-year-old has 14 home runs and 32 RBI on the season and is coming off a solid month of June in a revitalized Angels lineup. He remains a must-start player in fantasy leagues.

Hays jumped on a fifth-inning pitch from Zack Wheeler and hit it 377 feet at 100.3 mph for the only hit and run of the game for the Reds. Hays now has eight home runs and 31 RBI on the season and has been really solid when healthy for Cincinnati. He deserves to be rostered in most league types at this point.

Bryant told reporters he’ll consult with doctors this week to explore experimental treatment options in an effort to avoid back surgery, which would likely be career-ending. The 33-year-old former NL MVP has been out since early April dealing with lumbar degenerative disease, a chronic condition that will require constant management for the rest of his playing career. At this point, it’s fair to wonder if he’s ever going to play again. We’re hoping that isn’t the case, but he’s not making any sort of progress towards returning this season.
