St. Louis Cardinals at Philadelphia Phillies odds, picks and predictions The St. Louis Cardinals face the Philadelphia Phillies Monday in the opener of a 3-game set at Citizens Bank Park.
Chen-Wei Lin - Makes High-A debut Lin (undisclosed) was reinstated from High-A Peoria's 7-day injured list Sunday and allowed four runs (one earned) on five hits and no walks while striking out three over 2.2 innin...
Impact Lin missed the first month of the season due to an unspecified issue but received the green light to join Peoria after making a two-inning start for Single-A Palm Beach on May 4. The 23-year-old righty took the loss in his Peoria debut, but he was able to pound the strike zone Sunday, carrying over a trend from last season. He spent the entire 2024 campaign with Palm Beach and turned in a stellar 18.8 K-BB% across 116 innings in the Florida State League.

Victor Scott II - Sitting against southpaw Scott is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Phillies.
Impact The left-handed-hitting Scott had been part of the lineup each of the last nine games -- including two starts against left-handed pitchers -- but he'll hit the bench for the series opener in Philadelphia while the Phillies send southpaw Cristopher Sanchez to the bump. Jose Barrero will draw the start in center field and could serve as an occasional platoon mate for Scott, who is slashing .226/.306/.258 with a 31.6 percent strikeout rate in 38 plate appearances against lefties on the season.

Nathaniel Lowe - Swats seventh homer Lowe went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Sunday's loss to the Cardinals.
Impact The Nationals managed only five hits total, with Lowe producing the team's only run of the day when he took Miles Mikolas deep in the fourth inning. It was the first baseman's first long ball in May, and while he's batting just .242 through 171 plate appearances in his first season with the Nats, Lowe is on pace for career-best power numbers with seven homers and 29 RBI in 41 contests.

CJ Abrams - Keeps raking Sunday Abrams went 3-for-4 in Sunday's loss to the Cardinals.
Impact None of the singles resulted in any runs, as the rest of the Nationals' lineup managed only two hits combined. Abrams has been on a tear since late April, collecting 10 hits in the last four games and slashing .379/.446/.515 over the last 16 contests with seven extra-base hits (five doubles and two triples), four steals, seven RBI and 10 runs. The surge has boosted his OPS on the season to a career-high .897 as the 24-year-old shortstop looks to take another big step forward in his development.
