Cardinals' Michael Siani: Reaches 20-steal mark
Siani went 1-for-2 with a stolen base and a run scored in Tuesday's 7-3 win over the Rockies.
Amid a 4-for-37 skid over his last 13 games, Siani's playing time has taken a hit. He's still picked up five steals over his last 15 contests, giving him 20 thefts on 23 attempts this season. The center fielder is at a .237/.286/.296 slash line with two home runs, 20 RBI and 40 runs scored through 119 games. While his defense has kept him in the lineup regularly, Siani could lose playing time to Victor Scott while the latter is on the major-league roster.

Siani went 1-for-3 with a double, a stolen base and a run scored in Tuesday's 3-1 win over the Pirates.

The outfielder has had some good moments with the bat this year, but his defense has made him a near-everyday option when healthy. He's slashing .241/.285/.300 with 18 steals, two home runs, 20 RBI and 38 runs scored through 299 plate appearances.

Cardinals' Michael Siani: Registers steal in Wednesday's win

Siani has three steals over eight games since he returned from an oblique injury. He's now 17-for-20 on the basepaths this year while adding a .246/.286/.308 slash line, two home runs, 20 RBI and 38 runs scored over 109 contests.

Cardinals' Michael Siani: Provides key hit in win
Siani went 1-for-4 with two RBI, a stolen base and one run scored in Tuesday's 7-4 extra-innings win over the Brewers.
Siani came through with a two-run single in the 12th inning to put the Cardinals ahead for good. This was his second game back after a four-week absence with an oblique strain. He's regained a starting job in center field, relegating Victor Scott to a speed-and-defense role off the bench. Siani has been excellent defensively without being a black hole on offense, slashing .253/.296/.320 with 10 extra-base hits, 20 RBI, 37 runs scored and 15 steals over 103 contests this season.

Cardinals' Michael Siani: Activated, not available Sunday
The Cardinals reinstated Siani (oblique) from the 10-day injured list Sunday, but he won't be available for the team's series finale against the Yankees in New York, John Denton of MLB.com reports.
St. Louis is bringing Siani back with the active roster expanding from 26 to 28 men, but after playing for Triple-A Memphis in Iowa a night earlier, he won't be able to join the Cardinals in New York in time for Sunday's game. Victor Scott will pick up the start in center field Sunday as a result, but manager Oliver Marmol said that Siani will "get the bulk of the time in center field" now that he's been activated, per Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat. Prior to landing on the IL with a right oblique strain Aug. 4, Siani slashed .256/.297/.325 over 259 plate appearances, but his excellent defense and speed (14 steals in 17 attempts) are enough to keep him locked into a near-everyday role.

Siani (oblique) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Memphis on Tuesday, Lynn Worthy of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol said Thursday that Siani will begin a rehab assignment soon, although the team is still determining when and where that will occur. The center fielder has a shot to return before the end of August.

Cardinals' Michael Siani: Cleared to swing
Team doctors cleared Siani (oblique) to resume swinging a bat Saturday, John Denton of MLB.com reports.

Cardinals' Michael Siani: Meeting with doctors Friday
Siani is meeting with doctors Friday to evaluate whether he's healed enough to begin swinging a bat, John Denton of MLB.com reports.
Siani received a platelet-rich plasma injection in his right oblique Aug. 6, two days after being placed on the 10-day injured list. The 25-year-old outfielder has progressed to fielding drills and running over the past week, and he could be ready to take the next step in his rehab program. Siani has a slash line of .400/.455/.425 with four stolen bases, nine runs scored and four RBI across 43 plate appearances since the All-Star break.

Siani received a platelet-rich plasma injection in his right oblique Monday, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.
Siani has been able to do some light running and lifting since his strained right oblique sent him to the injured list Sunday, though he remains without an official return timeline. Victor Scott will likely see the bulk of work in center field while Siani is out.

Cardinals' Michael Siani: Headed for IL
The Cardinals are expected to place Siani (oblique) on the injured list prior to Sunday's game against the Cubs, Katie Woo of The Athletic reports.
The team has yet to disclose the severity of the right oblique injury that Siani sustained in Saturday's 5-4 win, but his pending move to the IL suggests that it's more than a day-to-day concern. The Cardinals plan to recall Victor Scott from Triple-A Memphis in a corresponding move, but it's unclear if Scott will immediately step into Siani's everyday role in center field or if he'll instead function as more of a late-inning defensive replacement and pinch runner. St. Louis could choose to open up regular room in the outfield for Brendan Donovan, Tommy Pham and Lars Nootbaar, though the club's outfield defense would take a big hit without rangier options like Siani or Scott patrolling center field.

Cardinals' Michael Siani: Out with oblique strain
The Cardinals placed Siani on the 10-day injured list Sunday due to a right oblique strain.
The 25-year-old suffered the injury during Saturday's contest, and the Cardinals won't waste any time before moving him to the injured list. Siani is without an official timeline for his return, but it's likely to sideline him beyond the 10-day minimum and could be a significant injury, per Katie Woo of The Athletic.

Cardinals' Michael Siani: Battling oblique injury
Siani was removed from Saturday's game against the Cubs due to right oblique tightness, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Siani had gone 0-for-3 with three strikeouts before his oblique forced him out of the game in the eighth inning. The severity of his injury remains unknown, but it's possible the Cardinals hold him out for another day or two so that he can properly recover.
