Diaz is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Pirates, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

Jedd Gyorko will take over at shortstop Wednesday with Kolten Wong drawing back into the lineup against Juan Nicasio and the Pirates. Diaz got the start Tuesday, going 1-for-3 with a run and a strikeout. Perhaps more concerning for Diaz's playing time in the short term was that he committed an error, and given the Cardinals patchwork corps of shortstop options, competence in the field could carry a lot of weight with manager Mike Matheny.
