Lars Nootbaar Day-to-Day With Rib Soreness For Cardinals

Lars Nootbaar recently dealt with rib soreness but remains active. In the last three games, he had a .444 batting average with a home run and two doubles. This strong performance shows his ability to contribute despite the nagging rib issue.

For the season, Nootbaar has a .229 average with 12 home runs and 37 RBIs. He shines more at home, hitting .279 compared to .186 on the road. The Cardinals will likely monitor his condition closely, given his recent rib soreness on June 29, which also affected his play.
