Ivan Herrera Resting On Sunday
1 day agoSt. Louis Cardinals catcher Ivan Herrera is not in Sunday's lineup when the Cardinals conclude a series against the Minnesota Twins. Herrera started behind the plate in each of the first two games of the campaign. At the plate, Herrera enjoyed a hot start as he went 4-for-7 with two doubles and a 1:2 BB:K. He tallied two RBI and scored once. Instead, the Cardinals will turn to Pedro Pages to catch St. Louis right-hander Andre Pallante. Fantasy managers should expect Herrera to continue to be the primary backstop in St. Louis, and he will likely return to the starting nine on Monday against the Los Angeles Angels. Last season, the 24-year-old posted a strong .301/.372/.428 slash line with five long balls and five stolen bases. Given his hot start, he is a strong No. 2 catcher in two-catcher formats going forward.
