Slated for call-up The Cardinals are expected to recall Herrera from Triple-A Memphis on Sunday, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

Impact Willson Contreras suffered a fractured finger on Saturday and will require a stint on the injured list, opening up a spot on the 26-man roster for Herrera. The 24-year-old will mix in with Pedro Pages behind the dish while Contreras is sidelined. In 191 big-league plate appearances this season, Herrera is slashing .279/.340/.378 with three home runs and four stolen bases.

Heating up at Triple-A Herrera (shoulder) is 6-for-12 with one home run, four RBI, one stolen base and one run scored over his last three games at Triple-A Memphis.

Impact Herrera was held out for a little over a week earlier in the month while recovering from a left shoulder sprain, but he's since been given the green light to return and has looked dialed in at the dish. He's now slashing .345/.457/.448 through eight games in August.

Dealing with left shoulder sprain Herrera has been out of the lineup for Triple-A Memphis due to a left shoulder sprain, Lynn Worthy of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

Impact Herrera has not played for Memphis since Aug. 4 against Durham. Since being activated from the 10-day injured list July 12, he's slashing .275/.431/.425 with 11 walks, one home run and four RBI across 51 minor-league plate appearances. It's not clear if the 24-year-old catcher will need another stint on the IL.

Activated, sent to Triple-A The Cardinals activated Herrera (back) from the 10-day injured list and optioned him to Triple-A Memphis.

Impact Herrera has been shelved since June 22 due to soreness in his lower back, and although he's now healthy, the 24-year-old won't rejoin the big-league roster. Pedro Pages will handle backup catching duties behind Willson Contreras in St. Louis.

Progressing through rehab program Cardinals manager Oli Marmol said Saturday that Herrera (back) experienced no pain after Friday's rehab outing with Triple-A Memphis, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

Impact As the designated hitter Friday, Herrera went 1-for-3 with one home run, three RBI and one walk. Marmol noted that Herrera will start behind home plate soon, and a return to the majors will hinge on the 24-year-old's ability to start at catcher on back-to-back days. Before landing on the injured list June 22 with lower-back tightness, Herrera was slashing .279/.340/.378 with three home runs and 19 RBI over 191 major-league plate appearances.

Beginning rehab assignment Herrera will begin a rehab assignment at Triple-A Memphis on Thursday, Lynn Worthy of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

Impact Herrera is slated to catch five innings with Memphis on Thursday for his first game action since being placed on the IL on June 22 due to back soreness. Even when healthy, it's unclear if Herrera will stick around with the Cardinals considering Willson Contreras and Pedro Pages are both active.

Impact Herrera added that he may progress to participating in batting practice within the next several days, and a rehab assignment could come shortly thereafter if his back responds properly.

Impact Herrera caught three innings earlier in the day after the Cardinals resumed Tuesday's suspended game in the bottom of the sixth and emerged with a 3-1 victory, so he'll just be getting some rest in Wednesday's regularly scheduled game. Pedro Pages will get the starting nod behind the dish.

Homers in comeback win Herrera went 2-for-5 with a solo home run, an RBI single and additional run scored in Thursday's 8-5 win over the Marlins.

Impact Herrera opened the scoring in the second inning with his homer, and his other hit sparked the Cardinals' five-run rally in the seventh inning. The catcher is filling in while Willson Contreras (hand) is unavailable. This was Herrera's second multi-hit effort in a row, and he's now 4-for-12 with four RBI and two runs scored over four contests this season. He's also yet to draw a walk while striking out five times, so there's still room for improvement with plate discipline.
