Cardinals' Michael Siani: Picks up steal Friday
Siani went 2-for-3 with a stolen base in Friday's 6-1 loss to the Mariners.
Siani has gone 3-for-14 with two steals and two RBI over four games since he returned from an oblique injury. The center fielder was the only Cardinal with multiple hits in Friday's contest. He's up to a .254/.295/.319 slash line with 16 thefts, two home runs, 20 RBI, 37 runs scored, six doubles and two triples through 105 contests this year.

Cardinals' Michael Siani: Provides key hit in win
Siani went 1-for-4 with two RBI, a stolen base and one run scored in Tuesday's 7-4 extra-innings win over the Brewers.
Siani came through with a two-run single in the 12th inning to put the Cardinals ahead for good. This was his second game back after a four-week absence with an oblique strain. He's regained a starting job in center field, relegating Victor Scott to a speed-and-defense role off the bench. Siani has been excellent defensively without being a black hole on offense, slashing .253/.296/.320 with 10 extra-base hits, 20 RBI, 37 runs scored and 15 steals over 103 contests this season.

Cardinals' Michael Siani: Activated, not available Sunday
The Cardinals reinstated Siani (oblique) from the 10-day injured list Sunday, but he won't be available for the team's series finale against the Yankees in New York, John Denton of MLB.com reports.
St. Louis is bringing Siani back with the active roster expanding from 26 to 28 men, but after playing for Triple-A Memphis in Iowa a night earlier, he won't be able to join the Cardinals in New York in time for Sunday's game. Victor Scott will pick up the start in center field Sunday as a result, but manager Oliver Marmol said that Siani will "get the bulk of the time in center field" now that he's been activated, per Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat. Prior to landing on the IL with a right oblique strain Aug. 4, Siani slashed .256/.297/.325 over 259 plate appearances, but his excellent defense and speed (14 steals in 17 attempts) are enough to keep him locked into a near-everyday role.

Cardinals' Michael Siani: Cleared for rehab assignment
Siani (oblique) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Memphis on Tuesday, Lynn Worthy of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Siani will play five innings in center field in his first rehab game and continue to build up from there. He would seem to be tracking toward a return within the next week or so. Siani has been shelved since early August with a right oblique strain.

Cardinals' Michael Siani: Takes batting practice
Siani (oblique) took a full round of batting practice Thursday, John Denton of MLB.com reports.
It's the first time he's done so since landing on the 10-day injured list in early August with a right oblique strain. Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol said Thursday that Siani will begin a rehab assignment soon, although the team is still determining when and where that will occur. The center fielder has a shot to return before the end of August.

Cardinals' Michael Siani: Rehab progressing
Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol said Wednesday that Siani (oblique) has progressed to hitting coach-flipped pitches and doing some light defensive work, John Denton of MLB.com reports.
Siani began hitting off a tee this past weekend and is now continuing his progression as he works his way back from a right oblique strain. The center fielder has been shelved since early August but could be ready to return from the 10-day injured list around the start of September.

Cardinals' Michael Siani: Cleared to swing
Team doctors cleared Siani (oblique) to resume swinging a bat Saturday, John Denton of MLB.com reports.
Siani has been throwing and doing light fielding drills since undergoing a PRP injection Aug. 6, and he'll now be able to add swinging to his baseball activities. The center fielder hasn't played since Aug. 3 due to a strained right oblique but could be back before the end of August.

Cardinals' Michael Siani: Meeting with doctors Friday
Siani is meeting with doctors Friday to evaluate whether he's healed enough to begin swinging a bat, John Denton of MLB.com reports.
Siani received a platelet-rich plasma injection in his right oblique Aug. 6, two days after being placed on the 10-day injured list. The 25-year-old outfielder has progressed to fielding drills and running over the past week, and he could be ready to take the next step in his rehab program. Siani has a slash line of .400/.455/.425 with four stolen bases, nine runs scored and four RBI across 43 plate appearances since the All-Star break.

Cardinals' Michael Siani: Receives PRP injection
Siani received a platelet-rich plasma injection in his right oblique Monday, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.
Siani has been able to do some light running and lifting since his strained right oblique sent him to the injured list Sunday, though he remains without an official return timeline. Victor Scott will likely see the bulk of work in center field while Siani is out.

Cardinals' Michael Siani: Headed for IL
The Cardinals are expected to place Siani (oblique) on the injured list prior to Sunday's game against the Cubs, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.
The team has yet to disclose the severity of the right oblique injury that Siani sustained in Saturday's 5-4 win, but his pending move to the IL suggests that it's more than a day-to-day concern. The Cardinals plan to recall Victor Scott from Triple-A Memphis in a corresponding move, but it's unclear if Scott will immediately step into Siani's everyday role in center field or if he'll instead function as more of a late-inning defensive replacement and pinch runner. St. Louis could choose to open up regular room in the outfield for Brendan Donovan, Tommy Pham and Lars Nootbaar, though the club's outfield defense would take a big hit without rangier options like Siani or Scott patrolling center field.

Cardinals' Michael Siani: Out with oblique strain
The Cardinals placed Siani on the 10-day injured list Sunday due to a right oblique strain.
The 25-year-old suffered the injury during Saturday's contest, and the Cardinals won't waste any time before moving him to the injured list. Siani is without an official timeline for his return, but it's likely to sideline him beyond the 10-day minimum and could be a significant injury, per Katie Woo of The Athletic.

Cardinals' Michael Siani: Battling oblique injury
Siani was removed from Saturday's game against the Cubs due to right oblique tightness, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Siani had gone 0-for-3 with three strikeouts before his oblique forced him out of the game in the eighth inning. The severity of his injury remains unknown, but it's possible the Cardinals hold him out for another day or two so that he can properly recover.

Cardinals' Michael Siani: Adds steal Tuesday
Siani went 1-for-3 with a stolen base and a run scored in Tuesday's 8-1 win over the Rangers.
With both Tommy Edman (wrist) and Dylan Carlson traded away at the deadline, the Cardinals gave Siani significantly more wiggle room in center field. The outfielder's defense has been excellent this season, and he's batting .393 (11-for-28) with four steals over 10 games since the All-Star break. For the season, he has a .248/.288/.320 slash line with 14 thefts, two home runs, 16 RBI and 33 runs scored over 97 contests. Siani will likely still sit against some southpaws, but he doesn't appear at risk of a strict platoon since the Cardinals currently have just one right-handed-hitting outfielder (Tommy Pham) on their active roster.

Siani is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Pirates, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

Cardinals' Michael Siani: Sitting out Monday
Siani is absent from the lineup for Monday's game in Pittsburgh.
Siani started all three games of St. Louis' weekend series in Atlanta, but he'll begin the series opener versus the Pirates on the bench.

Cardinals' Michael Siani: Adds another steal
Siani went 2-for-4 with a stolen base and a run scored in Sunday's 6-2 win over Atlanta.
Siani has opened the second half 4-for-10 with three steals and five strikeouts over three games. The outfielder is better known as a defensive ace, but if he can get his bat going, he offers some appeal as a speed threat in deeper fantasy formats. Siani is slashing .235/.273/.309 with two home runs, 13 thefts, 14 RBI and 30 runs scored through 225 plate appearances.

Cardinals' Michael Siani: Swipes two bags Saturday
Siani went 1-for-3 with a walk, two runs scored and two stolen bases in the second game of Saturday's doubleheader split with Atlanta.
After going 1-for-3 with no other production in the matinee as the Cardinals lost 3-2 in 10 innings, Siani made a bigger impact in a victory during the nightcap. It's the second time this season he's swiped multiple bags in a game, and the 25-year-old center fielder has gone 12-for-15 on the basepaths in 89 games, but Siani otherwise isn't making much of an impact on offense -- he's slashing .230/.269/.305 with two homers, 14 RBI and 29 runs.

Siani was hit by a pitch in the elbow during the first game of a doubleheader Saturday and didn't play in the nightcap, or the Cardinals' final game before the All-Star break Sunday. He's good to go after the four days of rest, filling his usual spot in center field. Siani is slashing .227/.263/.304 across 214 plate appearances.
