Yadi Molina out for Cardinals Wednesday due to hand injury
St. Louis Cardinals catcher Yadier Molina is out of the starting lineup on Wednesday due to a bruised right hand.
What It Means:
Molina suffered the injury on Sunday and hasn't fully recovered, so the Cardinals are giving him time to heal. Matt Wieters is starting at catcher and batting sixth on Wednesday night against right-hander Aaron Nola and the Philadelphia Phillies.
Molina is batting .265/.294/.397 with 4 homers, 13 doubles, 33 RBI, 18 runs scored, and 4 steals in 201 plate appearances this season.
