The 37-year-old needed just 77 pitches to navigate through six frames and it was the fourth time in his last five starts he's been able to throw six or more innings. In eight starts since Aug. 14, Lester is 4-0 with a 2.76 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 24:15 K:BB over 45.2 innings.

    Cardinals' Jon Lester: Moved up in pitching schedule

    Jon Lester will start Monday's series opener against the Brewers in Milwaukee, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.St. Louis previously listed Lester as its probable starter for Tuesday's game, but he'll move ahead of Jake Woodford in the St. Louis Cardinals' pitching schedule as St. Louis begins a seven-game week. According to Jones, the Cardinals' main motivation to have Lester take the hill Monday rather than Tuesday may have been to keep him lined up for a potential start in a one-game wild-card contest on five days' rest. Lester has delivered quality starts in three of his last four outings, turning in a 2.19 ERA and 0.97 WHIP across 24.2 innings during that stretch.

    Cardinals' Jon Lester: Pitches effectively in no-decision

    Jon Lester did not factor in the decision against Cincinnati on Friday, tossing seven innings and allowing two runs on three hits and four walks while striking out two.The veteran was a bit wild in the contest -- he tied a season high with four free passes -- but Lester was nonetheless effective, completing seven innings for the first time since July 19 and limiting the Reds to a pair of solo home runs. The strong outing continued a recent resurgence by the southpaw, who has posted a 1.90 ERA over his past four starts covering 23.2 frames. His peripherals make it hard to believe in Lester's continued success, as he has also posted a less-than-ideal 13:10 K:BB over that stretch, so fantasy managers should proceed with caution. Lester's next start is tentatively slated to come in New York against the Mets next week.

    Cardinals' Jon Lester: Effective in no-decision

    Jon Lester allowed one run on seven hits and two walks while striking out four in five innings of Wednesday's 3-2, extra-inning win over the Tigers. He did not factor into the decision.It was Lester's second good start in five outings since being sent to St. Louis. Since the trade, the lefty has a 6.04 ERA and 12:11 K:BB in 25.1 innings. The St. Louis Cardinals clearly acquired Lester to be an innings-eater as they get through the last two months of the regular season, and he's done that pretty effectively, completing at least five frames in all but one of his post-deadline starts. Lester is expected to make his next start Monday in Cincinnati.
