Cards' Molina still out: DeJong still at Memphis: Bader still idle

Neither injured catcher Yadier Molina (bruised left knee) nor shortstop Paul DeJong (non-displaced rib fracture) will be in the Cardinals’ lineup Tuesday night against Cleveland although DeJong, his medical rehabilitation option still in play, would have been in the Memphis lineup against Gwinnett had had not the Redbirds been rained out.

Meanwhile, center fielder Harrison Bader, who has his own non-displaced rib fracture, is not progressing quickly and hasn’t even resumed baseball activities yet.

Cardinals manager Mike Shildt said he spoke to Molina and Molina had told him he expected to be ready to play Wednesday night in the series finale when Adam Wainwright, his battery mate for 284 major league starts, will face the Indians.
