Nolan Arenado Returns On Saturday
5 months agoAfter an off day on Friday, St. Louis Cardinals third baseman Nolan Arenado (elbow) is back in the starting lineup on Saturday to face the visiting San Francisco Giants and right-hander Jordan Hicks. Arenado left Wednesday's game early after being hit by a pitch in his left elbow and sat out of Thursday's game at Rickwood Field as a precaution. Now that he's back after a one-game absence, Arenado will look to stay rather hot in the month of June. In 17 games since June 1, he's hitting .270 (17-for-63) with a homer, three doubles, six RBI, one stolen base and four runs scored. Overall in 70 games in 2024, the eight-time All-Star has been rather mediocre at the plate, slashing .260/.315/.375 with six long balls, 32 RBI and 26 runs scored in 298 trips to the plate. Arenado has a hit in his only career at-bat against Hicks.
