Cardinals' Jordan Walker: Swing adjustment while on rehab
Cardinals president of baseball operations John Mozeliak said Friday that he hopes Walker (appendix) will be ready for activation from the 10-day injured list within the next two weeks, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Walker seems to be physically ready to return after landing on the IL on June 25 due to appendicitis. However, the Cardinals are having him work on a swing adjustment, and they have specific staff at Double-A Springfield -- where Walker is on his rehab assignment -- that they believe can help with that adjustment. The Cardinals could hold off on activating Walker until the start of the second half, as that would be the two-week mark from Mozeliak's statement Friday.

Cardinals' Jordan Walker: Needs rehab assignment
Walker (appendix) is rejoining the team this week in Pittsburgh to meet with the training staff before heading out on a rehab assignment, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
The 23-year-old has apparently recovered well from appendicitis, but he won't return from the 10-day injured list when first eligible Friday. Walker may need only a couple rehab games in the minors and could be back with the Cardinals early next week.

Cardinals' Jordan Walker: Kicking off rehab stint Saturday
Walker (appendicitis) will start a rehab assignment with Triple-A Memphis on Saturday, Daniel Guerrero of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Walker isn't eligible to come off the 10-day injured list until next Wednesday, so he'll presumably play in at least a couple games for Memphis prior to being activated. Once he rejoins the Cardinals, Walker will likely occupy the short side of a platoon in right field.

Cardinals' Jordan Walker: Tracking toward Friday return
Walker (appendix) appears on track to be activated from the 10-day injured list prior to Friday's game against the Cubs, Daniel Guerrero of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Coming back from appendicitis, Walker has played two rehab games at Triple-A Memphis -- one as the designated hitter and one as the right fielder -- and seems to have come out of those contests feeling good. He will remain with Memphis for a few more days before likely returning to the active roster this weekend. Walker had been seeing his playing time versus right-handed pitching dip prior to his injury, but it's possible he'll see an uptick in starts if Lars Nootbaar's intercostal issue lingers.

Cardinals' Jordan Walker: Could resume assignment Saturday
Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol told reporters Friday that Walker (abdomen) could begin his rehab assignment with Triple-A Memphis as soon as Saturday, John Denton of MLB.com reports.
Walker landed on the 10-day injured list Wednesday due to appendicitis. He was able to avoid surgery after being treated with antibiotics and could be reinstated from the IL when eligible next Wednesday, per Denton. Walker has gone 3-for-18 with three runs scored since returning from a left wrist injury in mid-June.

Cardinals' Jordan Walker: Did not require surgery
Walker (abdomen) did not require surgery for his recent bout of appendicitis and was allowed to return home Wednesday, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Because the appendicitis was caught early, Walker was able to treat it with antibiotics and other treatments. The avoidance of surgery could allow Walker to return sooner, perhaps when his 10 days are up or close to it. He will rest for 4-to-5 days and could go out on a short rehab assignment before being activated from the 10-day injured list.

Cardinals' Jordan Walker: Goes on IL with appendicitis
The Cardinals placed Walker on the 10-day injured list Wednesday due to appendicitis.
Walker will be eligible to return from the IL on July 4, but since he'll likely require an appendectomy that could result in him losing some strength, it wouldn't be surprising if the Cardinals hold him out through the All-Star break to afford him more time to get reconditioned. Since rejoining the Cardinals on June 14 after a prior stint on the IL due to a wrist injury, Walker has largely served as a short-side platoon player in the outfield. The Cardinals recalled infielder Jose Fermin from Triple-A Memphis to replace Walker on the 26-man active roster.

Cardinals' Jordan Walker: Out of lineup versus right-hander
Walker is not in the lineup for Monday's game against the Cubs.
It's righty Ben Brown on the hill for the Cubs, marking the third time in six games versus right-handers since Walker returned from the injured list that he's been out of the lineup. He was also absent from the lineup once over that span against a left-handed opener. Alec Burleson is in right field and Nolan Gorman is at designated hitter for the Cardinals.

Cardinals' Jordan Walker: Sitting out versus righty
Walker is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's game versus the White Sox.
Walker started the first two contests upon his activation from the 10-day injured list, going 2-for-7 with a 1:1 K:BB, but he'll take a seat in Tuesday's series opener. Alec Burleson is occupying right field for the Cardinals. Walker could continue to see his reps versus righties limited as long as Ivan Herrera is primarily used at designated hitter.

Cardinals' Jordan Walker: Activated from IL
The Cardinals reinstated Walker (wrist) from the injured list Saturday, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.
Walker appeared to be trending toward returning to the active roster Tuesday, but he'll instead arrive a bit earlier than expected and start in right field Saturday against Milwaukee. The 23-year-old outfielder turned in a .215/.273/.310 slash line across 172 plate appearances before getting injured in late May, and he's likely to fill in as outfield depth now that he's healthy. Michael Siani was optioned to Triple-A Memphis in a corresponding move.

Cardinals' Jordan Walker: Returning Tuesday at latest
The Cardinals plan to activate Walker (wrist) from the 10-day injured list Tuesday, at the latest, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Walker went 3-for-4 with three RBI in his second rehab game with Triple-A Memphis on Friday. The Cardinals have an off day looming Monday before starting a series in Chicago against the White Sox on Tuesday. While Walker is most likely to return to the lineup Tuesday, it sounds like the club hasn't ruled out activating him before the end of its series in Milwaukee this weekend. Walker has been sidelined since late May with left wrist inflammation.

Cardinals' Jordan Walker: Starting rehab assignment
Walker (wrist) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Memphis on Thursday, John Denton of MLB.com reports.
Walker had a setback with his left wrist last week, but he responded well to an anti-inflammatory shot and has been cleared for rehab games. The young outfielder's rehab assignment is expected to be a brief one, with a return June 17 for the start of a series against the White Sox representing a logical return date if all goes well.

Cardinals' Jordan Walker: Poised for rehab game Thursday
Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol said Monday that he expects Walker (wrist) to begin a rehab assignment Thursday, John Denton of MLB.com reports.
It's not clear yet which affiliate Walker will be assigned to, but the outfielder apparently responded well to a workout and on-field batting practice Monday. The Cardinals have an off day next Monday before beginning a series in Chicago against the White Sox on June 17, and Walker could be ready to return on that date.

Cardinals' Jordan Walker: Could begin rehab Tuesday
Walker (wrist) could begin a rehab assignment as soon as Tuesday, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Walker's left wrist responded well to an anti-inflammatory shot, and he felt good hitting in the batting cage Sunday. The outfielder will work out and take batting practice Monday and, if he gets through that without any hiccups, will be cleared for rehab games. It's not clear how many rehab contests Walker will be asked to play, but he should be ready for activation within the next week or so.

Cardinals' Jordan Walker: Swings off tee Saturday
Walker (wrist) took swings off a tee Saturday, Daniel Guerrero of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Walker had been shut down for a few days after being given an anti-inflammatory injection in his left wrist earlier this week. Per Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol, Walker's rehab will go "pretty quickly" as long as the wrist responds. Walker is eligible for activation from the 10-day injured list Sunday but still lacks a clear timeline for his return.

Cardinals' Jordan Walker: Gets injection for injured wrist
Cardinals manager Carlos Marmol said that Walker will not swing a bat for a few days after being given an anti-inflammatory injection Wednesday in his injured left wrist, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Walker tried to take swings off a tee Monday but had to stop due to continued soreness in the wrist. He underwent additional imaging after that setback, and no structural damage was found. The hope is that the shot will knock out the inflammation in Walker's wrist and that he will be able to ramp up workouts again soon. The outfielder will not be ready for activation from the 10-day injured list when first eligible Sunday.

Cardinals' Jordan Walker: Feels soreness hitting off tee
Walker felt soreness in his injured left wrist while hitting off a tee Monday, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Walker went through additional imaging of the wrist joint afterward and it did not show any structural damage. While the setback seems to be minor, it's not clear when Walker will be ready to swing a bat again, and a minimum stay on the 10-day injured list now appears unlikely. Walker is eligible for activation June 8.

Cardinals' Jordan Walker: IL stint expected to be brief
Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol said Saturday that he expects Walker (wrist) back from the 10-day injured list "pretty soon," Daniel Guerrero of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Walker began feeling discomfort with his left wrist during the Cardinals' last homestand and the pain went "in and out" since then, per Marmol, before the outfielder landed on the IL on Saturday. He will be eligible for activation June 8, and it sounds as if Walker has a chance to return on that date or shortly after. With Walker shelved, Alec Burleson is making a third straight start in right field Sunday.

Cardinals' Jordan Walker: Placed on injured list
The Cardinals placed Walker on the 10-day injured list Saturday with left wrist inflammation, retroactive to Thursday.
Walker's wrist injury helps to explain why he was left out of the lineup Friday against Arizona. The severity of his injury is still unclear, so there's no telling if he might be able to return when eligible June 8. In the meantime, Ryan Vilade will come up from Triple-A Memphis to replenish St. Louis' outfield depth.

Cardinals' Jordan Walker: Absent from Cardinals' lineup
Walker is not in the lineup for Friday's contest against the Diamondbacks.
Walker has now been out of the lineup each of the last four times the Cardinals have faced a right-hander. Alec Burleson is handling right field, Ivan Herrera is at designated hitter and Pedro Pages is doing the catching.
