With the Cardinals’ pitching staff plucked for parts at the trade deadline, things are only going to get worse from here on out as St. Louis finishes out a suprisingly putrid 2023. However, the offense went essentially unchanged, so there will still be games down the stretch where we see a glimpse of what could’ve been this year, had the proper pitching reinforcements been added. Tonight was one of those nights.
Here are the starting lineups for the Twins and Cardinals:
- Carlos Correa, SS
 - Edouard Julien, DH
 - Jorge Polanco, 2B
 - Max Kepler, RF
 - Kyle Farmer, 3B
 - Matt Wallner, LF
 - Christian Vazquez, C
 - Joey Gallo, 1B
 - Michael A.
