Cards to send Miklos, Hudson, Bader to IL to start season

Shifts to IL The Cardinals placed Bader (forearm) on the 10-day injured list Sunday.

Impact Bader's move to the IL was a foregone conclusion after manager Mike Shildt said Wednesday that the 26-year-old would be sidelined at least four weeks due to a left forearm strain. While Bader is on the mend, Dylan Carlson is expected to serve as the Cardinals' everyday center fielder.

Slated to miss four weeks Cardinals manager Mike Shildt said Wednesday that Bader has suffered a "flare up" with his forearm and will miss at least four weeks, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat rep...

Impact Bader had been appearing in Grapefruit League games over the past two weeks after dealing with a forearm issue earlier this spring. However, he'll receive a PRP injection Wednesday and will begin the regular season on the injured list as a result of his setback. In his absence, Dylan Carlson could shift to center field, while Lane Thomas and Justin Williams could see extra playing time for the Cardinals over the first few weeks of the regular season.

Hitless in return Bader (forearm) went 0-for-3 in a Grapefruit League loss to the Nationals on Wednesday, his first game action since March 2.

Impact The 26-year-old got Grapefruit League play off to a strong start with an RBI double over two at-bats back on Feb. 28, but he'd played in just one other exhibition before Wednesday due to forearm soreness. Bader should be available without restrictions moving forward after playing a full game Wednesday.

MARCH 11, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Starting Wednesday Bader (forearm) is starting Wednesday's spring game against the Nationals, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

Impact Bader was initially scheduled to return to the lineup Tuesday, but the team gave him an extra day of rest while he dealt with a sore right forearm. He'll hit ninth and play center field against Washington on Wednesday, and he should have plenty of time to prepare for Opening Day.

MARCH 10, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Not ready to play Bader (forearm) isn't included in the lineup for Tuesday's Grapefruit League game against the Mets, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

Impact The Cardinals had previously intimated that Bader would make his return to the lineup Tuesday after missing the last few days with a sore right forearm, but the team evidently decided the outfielder could benefit from some additional rest. The injury is still considered minor, so Bader's availability for Opening Day isn't yet in question.

MARCH 7, 2021 • MLB.COM

Managing forearm issue Manager Mike Shildt said Bader has "a little barking" in his right forearm, though initial medical imaging came back clean, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

Impact Shildt indicated the 26-year-old would likely play through the injury were it the regular season, but the team will remain cautious early in spring training. It appears to be a minor injury, so Bader could return to game action after taking it easy for a few days.

Impact It's just an early spring training batting practice, but seeing Bader get good wood on the ball off two quality arms certainly had to please manager Mike Shildt, who has the 26-year-old penciled in as his starting center fielder largely based on his strong defense. Bader has hit just ..205 and .226 over the last two seasons following an encouraging .264/.334/.422 line back in 2018, and he'll likely be given plenty of Grapefruit League at-bats to get his timing down ahead of what all parties hope is a resurgent season with the bat.

Gets 'starting center fielder' tag Bader is the only outfield candidate who's been labeled a starter by the Cardinals organization ahead of spring training, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

Impact Goold relayed this nugget about the apparent job security in response to a reader question about Tyler O'Neill's chances of locking down the starting left field job ahead of the regular season, noting Bader is the only outfielder the team is clearly labeling as a starter at the moment. Bader's defense is primarily his saving grace, as following a promising 2018 at the plate, the 26-year-old has hit just .205 and .226 over the last two seasons. Bader's strikeout rate also concerningly rose to a career-high 32.0 percent during the abbreviated 2020 campaign, but it appears the Cardinals are prepared to give his bat a chance to catch up with his glove, at least to begin the 2021 season.

Cardinals, Flaherty still without deal, swap arb figures

JANUARY 16, 2021 • Associated Press

Avoids arbitration with Cards Bader signed a one-year, $2 million contract with the Cardinals on Friday to avoid arbitration, Bob Nightengale of USA Today reports.

Impact The 26-year-old receives a couple million in his first year of arbitration eligibility after posting a .779 OPS in 125 plate appearances in 2020. Bader should begin spring training as the favorite to start to start in center field for St. Louis.

Goes yard in regular-season finale Bader went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, an addition run scored and a triple in Sunday's 5-2 win over the Brewers.

Impact Bader hit a leadoff triple in the third inning and scored on a Kolten Wong single. In the fourth, Bader provided the Cardinals' last run of the game with a solo shot. The outfielder has a .226/.336/.443 slash line with four homers, 11 RBI, 21 runs scored and three stolen bases in 50 games.
