Wacha (shoulder) hopes to be activated from the disabled list Wednesday, MLB.com's Jenifer Langosch.

The Cardinals were considering shutting Wacha down for the season, but it now appears he will be available for the final few weeks of the regular season. It's not clear what Wacha's pitch count will be after more than a month on the DL, but it seems likely he'll work out of the bullpen to start out.
