Cardinals leave Brandon Crawford (hamstring) off Monday lineup

Crawford was forced to exit Sunday's game early after suffering a hamstring strain and will now miss Monday's contest as well. It's unclear how severe the veteran's injury is, but it is worth noting that he missed significant time in 2023 with another hamstring strain. Masyn Winn will cover shortstop today while Ivan Herrera will join the lineup at designated hitter, batting fifth. Crawford has 1 home run, 4 runs, 1 RBI, and a .184 batting average through 43 plate appearances this season.
