Lars Nootbaar News: Getting Sunday off
Nootbaar is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Padres.
After missing about three weeks due to a left costochondral sprain, Nootbaar made his return to the St. Louis lineup in Saturday's 8-5 win, starting in right field while going 1-for-5 with two strikeouts. He'll cede his spot in the outfield to Jordan Walker in the series finale, but Nootbaar should be a near-everyday player against right-handed pitching now that he's healthy again.
