Robberse (elbow) has been sent to the Cardinals' Florida Complex League affiliate to begin a rehab assignment.
Robberse has been cleared to pitch in games as he continues to work his way back from May 2025 Tommy John surgery. The right-hander was removed from the Cardinals' 40-man roster over the offseason before being re-signed to a minor-league contract. Robberse should eventually join the Memphis rotation once he's deemed ready.

Cardinals' Yairo Padilla: Ready for rehab assignment
Rotowire
Padilla (shoulder) has been sent to the Cardinals' Florida Complex League affiliate to begin a rehab assignment.
Padilla has been sidelined all season with a strained shoulder but has finally been cleared to test things out in a game atmosphere. The shortstop will likely play a few games with the FCL Cardinals before eventually being assigned to Single-A Palm Beach for his introduction to full-season ball. Padilla will turn just 19 later this month and hit .283/.396/.367 with 24 stolen bases last season in the FCL.

Cardinals' Sebastian Dos Santos: Making full-season debut
Rotowire
Dos Santos is starting at shortstop and batting leadoff in his debut at Single-A Palm Beach on Tuesday.
An 18-year-old out of Venezuela, Dos Santos is a helium prospect for the Cardinals after dominating the Dominican Summer League in 2025 (.313/.452/.570) and the Florida Complex League in 2026 (.264/.429/.586 with six homers and 10 steals). Dos Santos will face his stiffest test at Palm Beach as he breaks into full-season ball. The switch hitter has seen action at shortstop, second base and third base this season and will likely continue to bounce around the infield at Palm Beach.

Cardinals' Jesus Baez: Power burst in High-A
Rotowire
Baez homered in three straight games for High-A Peoria last week and has gone deep 10 times across his last 22 contests.
Baez got off to a slow start this season with a .672 OPS and three home runs in April. He's perked up since then, posting a .790 OPS with seven long balls in May and a 1.083 OPS with four homers in his first 10 games in June. With 14 home runs on the season, Baez has already tied a career high that he set last season. It's been an encouraging stretch for the 21-year-old Baez, who was acquired from the Mets in last year's Ryan Helsley trade.
Cardinals' Jimmy Crooks: Drives in two during win Monday
Rotowire
Crooks went 1-for-3 with a double and two RBI in Monday's win over the Padres.
Crooks provided the game's biggest hit in the fourth inning, lining a two-run double off Lucas Giolito to extend St. Louis' lead. The two RBI marked the second multi-RBI game of the catcher's young career. Since being called up from Triple-A Memphis on May 29, he has gone 6-for-28 (.214) with one home run, two doubles, six RBI and two runs scored. Playing time will be inconsistent for Crooks, as he currently operates in a catching committee alongside Ivan Herrera and Pedro Pages.
May (5-6) earned the win Monday against the Padres, allowing one hit and one walk while striking out nine over a complete-game shutout.
May delivered arguably the best start of his career Monday, firing his first complete game in 71 major-league starts. The right-hander flirted with perfection into the seventh inning before Fernando Tatis drew a leadoff walk, and a few batters later Manny Machado lined a single to break up the no-hit bid. Despite that, May retired the final seven batters he faced to complete the shutout. The 28-year-old has now recorded nine strikeouts in three of his last four starts and appears to be finding another gear as the season progresses. He owns a 3.75 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 75:21 K:BB across 81.2 innings and is scheduled to face Kansas City on the road in his next outing.

Cardinals' Ryan Fernandez: Eyeing rehab assignment this week
Rotowire
Fernandez (back) is on track to begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Memphis on Friday, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.
Fernandez has thrown one successful bullpen session since going down with lower-back pain in early June, and he will throw off the mound again Wednesday. As long as that goes well, Fernandez would be cleared for a rehab assignment. Because his absence has been brief, Fernandez shouldn't require many rehab appearances before being reinstated.
Burleson went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's 5-4 loss to the Twins.
Burleson got the Cardinals on the board when he homered off Taj Bradley in the fourth inning. With a homer in five of his last six contests and an active 14-game hitting streak, Burleson is locked in. During the streak, he has gone 19-for-58 (.328) with 10 extra-base hits and 16 RBI. For the season, the slugger is up to 13 homers, 51 RBI, 39 runs scored, 17 doubles and two stolen bases while batting .287 with an .848 OPS through 68 games.

Cardinals' JJ Wetherholt: Goes yard Sunday
Rotowire
Wetherholt went 2-for-5 with a two-run home run and an additional RBI in Sunday's 5-4 loss to the Twins.
Wetherholt has gone 8-for-26 (.308) over seven games since returning from a brief absence due to groin soreness. The infielder played a big role in the Cardinals' offense Sunday, though it wasn't quite enough. He's now hitting .255 on the year while adding a .761 OPS, 10 homers, 31 RBI, 45 runs scored, seven doubles and seven stolen bases over 65 games.

Cardinals' Michael McGreevy: No-decision in quality start
Rotowire
McGreevy allowed two runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out two over six innings in a no-decision versus the Twins on Sunday.
McGreevy left the game with a lead, but JoJo Romero and George Soriano combined to let it slip away over the seventh and eighth innings. This was McGreevy's third quality start in a row, and he's allowed six runs over 18 innings with an 8:4 K:BB in June. Overall, he has a 2.99 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 51:19 K:BB through 78.1 innings over 14 starts. McGreevy never really showed much strikeout potential in his developmental years, but he continues to do fairly well at inducing groundballs and limiting walks. His next start is projected to be at Kansas City.
Crooks is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Twins.
Crooks will be held out of the lineup for a second straight day, with Ivan Herrera and Pedro Pages both drawing starts behind the plate in his absence. Since being called up from Triple-A Memphis on May 29, Crooks has gone 5-for-25 (.200) with one home run, four RBI and two runs.

Cardinals' Masyn Winn: Taking seat Sunday
Rotowire
Winn is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Twins.
Rookie JJ Wetherholt will slide over from his usual spot at second base to make his first MLB start at shortstop. Winn had started the last five games, going 3-for-20 with a double, a stolen base, two walks, four runs and two RBI during that stretch.
Jordan went 2-for-4 with a triple, a three-run home run and a second run scored in Saturday's 9-6 win over the Twins.
After a 2-for-4 performance in his big-league debut Friday with a pair of singles, Jordan began flashing his power potential Saturday, leading off the second inning with a triple before crushing a Travis Adams fastball 418 feet to center field in the seventh inning to cap a five-run, three-homer frame for the Cardinals. Jordan was slashing .313/.373/.548 over 57 Triple-A games when he got the call to the majors, and the 23-year-old is making a strong early claim to the starting job at third base.

Cardinals' Ivan Herrera: Goes yard twice in Saturday's win
Rotowire
Herrera went 2-for-3 with a walk, two home runs and three RBI in Saturday's 9-6 win over the Twins.
The 26-year-old catcher snapped an 18-game power drought with his first multi-homer performance of the season, as he launched a two-run homer off Connor Prielipp in the first inning and a solo blast in the seventh off Justin Lawrence. Herrera has been an on-base machine so far in June, batting .324 (12-for-37) over the last 10 games with a .479 OBP fueled by six walks and five HBPs. That surge has boosted his slash line on the season to .270/.400/.437 with nine homers, three steals, 31 RBI and 46 runs in 68 contests.
