Lopez went 3-for-5 with a two-run home run, a double, an additional RBI and two total runs scored in Friday's 9-8 win over the Diamondbacks.

Lopez has five multi-hit efforts during his eight-game hitting streak, going 15-for-32 (.469) in that span. The infielder's homer Friday was his first since June 9 versus the Pirates, and this was his first game with multiple extra-base hits all season. The 26-year-old's surge has him up to a .261/.332/.386 slash line with a career-high seven homers as well as 35 RBI, 33 runs scored, nine doubles and eight stolen bases over 65 contests in 2025.

Hoerner went 1-for-3 with a solo home run, a walk and two total runs scored in Friday's 7-4 loss to the Astros.

Hoerner got the Cubs on the board with his fifth-inning homer. The middle infielder has hit safely in 14 of his last 16 games, going 20-for-57 (.351) with four extra-base hits in that span. Both of his homers this season have come over the last four games. He's added a .294/.339/.378 slash line with 34 RBI, 45 runs scored, 15 stolen bases, 17 doubles and a triple over 78 contests, so while he won't add much power, he has shown plenty of consistency with his bat and speed.

Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo said Friday that Lawlar is dealing with a Grade 1 hamstring strain and will be out for "weeks," Alex Weiner of ArizonaSports.com reports.

Lawlar suffered the injury while playing for Triple-A Reno, and he will miss extended time. A previous report indicated Lawlar would be out for at least a month, and Lovullo's words seem to back up that assessment.

Wisely went 2-for-4 with a two-RBI double in Thursday's 12-5 loss to the Marlins.

Wisely appeared in just his second game since being called back up June 20 and recorded his first two hits of the season. He hit a two-RBI double in the fourth inning to tie the game at 5-5 and added a single in the sixth. He's slashing .143/.143/.214 with four RBI and a run scored across 16 big-league plate appearances.

Lawlar was placed on Triple-A Reno's 7-day injured list Thursday due to a hamstring injury, Jack Sommers of SI.com reports.

Lawlar dealt with a hamstring issue last week into the beginning of this week, but he was back in Reno's lineup Wednesday. However, the talented young shortstop logged just one at-bat in his return before he was lifted, and he's now landed on the minor-league IL. Per Sommers, Lawlar will miss at least a month due to the injury, so he won't be back in action until late July, at the earliest.

Gorman will start at designated hitter and bat seventh in Thursday's game versus the Cubs.

It's the second day in a row that Gorman has started against a left-handed pitcher, and he's been in the lineup 15 times across the Cardinals' last 17 contests. The 25-year-old has posted a .919 OPS with four home runs and 10 RBI over that stretch.

Lopez went 3-for-4 with a walk, a double, a run scored and three RBI in Wednesday's extra-inning win over the Giants.

The 26-year-old infielder came through with one of the game's biggest hits, bringing home Nick Fortes in the top of the 10th inning to break open a 4-4 tie and spark a four-run rally for the Marlins. Lopez has been locked in at the plate of late, slashing .347/.389/.367 over the last 12 games with five runs, seven RBI and a steal, but Wednesday's double was his first extra-base hit of any kind since June 9.

Koss went 0-for-3 with an RBI and a run scored in Wednesday's 8-5 extra-inning loss to the Marlins.

Koss drove in a run with a sacrifice fly in the fifth inning to tie the game at 2-2. He later scored in the 10th, starting at second base as the automatic runner. The 27-year-old infielder is slashing .200/.188/.400 with four RBI, three runs scored, a home run and a stolen base across 17 plate appearances in June.

The Cardinals recalled Fermin from Triple-A Memphis on Wednesday.

Fermin will join the big club for the first time this season after slashing .308/.431/.483 with five home runs, 19 steals and a 19:37 K:BB over 55 games with Memphis. The 26-year-old has produced a .504 OPS in 66 career contests at the major-league level and will operate primarily as a reserve infielder.

McCoy (finger) has slashed .353/.400/.627 with three home runs, two stolen bases, 12 RBI and 11 runs in 12 games for Triple-A El Paso since the Padres activated him from the 10-day injured list June 7 and optioned him to the minors.

McCoy appeared in four games for the Padres earlier this season before being placed on the IL on April 29 due to a sprained finger on his left hand. The 30-year-old infielder was cleared to begin a minor-league assignment May 20, and after his 20-day rehab window was nearing its end, the Padres opted to send him to their top affiliate. McCoy could be in the mix for a call-up with San Diego later on this summer if the big club has a need for a utility infielder.
