Losing out on playing time Fermin is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Reds.

Impact On the bench for the fourth time in six games, Fermin might be moving back into more of a utility role after he had previously been seeing steadier playing time between third base and the outfield. However, with outfield prospect Joshua Baez handling an everyday role since getting the call to the big leagues last weekend and with rookie Blaze Jordan beginning to regain traction at the hot corner, Fermin's primary avenues to playing time have been closed off.

Settling in to regular role Fermin will start at third base and bat eighth in Thursday's game against the Brewers.

Impact It's the eighth consecutive start for Fermin, who is 8-for-26 with one home run and three doubles over that stretch. The start is also Fermin's fourth straight at third base versus a right-hander, as he seems to have inched past Blaze Jordan as the Cardinals' preferred option at the hot corner.

Nabbing third straight start Fermin will start at third base and bat eighth in Sunday's game against the Cubs.

Impact Fermin will claim his third consecutive start -- and his second in a row at third base -- after going 3-for-9 with two doubles, one RBI and one run between the first two contests of the series. With rookie Blaze Jordan (.642 OPS) having offered middling production at the hot corner since being promoted from Triple-A Memphis on June 12, Fermin could soon end up unseating him atop the depth chart, if he hasn't already. Fermin hasn't provided much power (.398 slugging percentage) or speed (three steals) while logging 144 plate appearances on the season, but he's been able to maintain a solid .271 batting average while striking out in just 13.9 percent for his trips to the dish.

Homer, steal in loss Fermin went 2-for-3 with a solo home run, a walk, a stolen base and three total runs scored in Wednesday's 9-4 loss to the Diamondbacks.

Impact Fermin stayed in the lineup for a second straight game as the Cardinals faced a left-handed pitcher. While his playing time has remained limited to short-side platoon duties most of the time, Fermin has done well in June. He's batting .364 (16-for-44) over 15 games this month, a span that includes all three of his steals this year. The utility man is hitting .277 with a .730 OPS, three homers, 15 RBI, 13 runs scored and five doubles over 122 plate appearances this season, but he has no path to a more prominent role yet.
