The St. Louis Cardinals placed right-handed pitching prospect Chen-Wei Lin (undisclosed) on the seven-day minor-league injured list at High-A Peoria on Thursday with an undisclosed injury. Lin has struggled in 2025 at Peoria and Single-A Palm Beach, but he was especially bad in his last five starts for Peoria, posting a 7.27 ERA with 23 strikeouts and 18 walks in 17 1/3 innings pitched. In all, the 23-year-old Taiwanese hurler has gone 0-2 with a 4.59 ERA and 1.44 WHIP with 42 strikeouts and 24 walks in 33 1/3 innings over 10 starts at the two minor-league levels. It's unclear how long Lin might be sidelined. Per MLB Pipeline, he's St. Louis' No. 13-ranked prospect. Lin hit 100 mph or over 12 times last year and also features a pretty nasty changeup that induces lots of swings and misses, but he's going to need to improve his control to move up the ladder in the minors.--Keith HernandezRead More News
