Dylan Carlson Not Playing Tuesday
9 months agoSt. Louis Cardinals outfielder Dylan Carlson (shoulder) is not in the starting lineup for Tuesday's exhibition game in Arizona against the Chicago Cubs, but shortstop Brandon Crawford (wrist) has returned after being hit by a pitch recently. Crawford is starting at shortstop and batting eighth. Carlson injured his left shoulder in Monday's Cactus League game when he collided with teammate Jordan Walker in the outfielder, and we still don't know the severity of the injury. With Opening Day right around the corner on Thursday against the Los Angeles Dodgers, Carlson may not be ready. Tommy Edman (wrist) and Lars Nootbaar (ribs) are on the injured list, so Michael Siani could be St. Louis' starting center fielder on Opening Day.
