First Pitch: Cardinals continue to spread out the workload in final homestand

First Pitch is scheduled for 6:15 p.m. at Busch Stadium.

With playoff seeding and postseason battles taking place all over baseball, the Cardinals are instead tinkering with their lineup, trying new things, giving opportunities and continuing to solidify who will be on their postseason roster and how they will want to play come next weekend.

Manager Oliver Marmol has made a point of finding opportunities for everyone in these final two series of the regular season. But he's walking the fine line of giving players too much time off while also not giving them enough time to work through processes at the plate and in the field.
