The 2024 season hasn't been kind to the St. Louis Cardinals so far and they are dealing with a handful of high-impact injuries.

St. Louis has been inconsistent, to say the least. The Cardinals' starting rotation is in a better place than it was in last season but the offense has taken a major step back. Although the Cardinals' offense hasn't been as good as expected, they have had some bright spots.

"Cardinals Willson Contreras, who broke the ulna bone in his left forearm on May 7, is out of a cast," Denton said. "He’s doing conditioning work and he is hopeful that doctors will let him swing a bat with his right hand . He said he got the cast off three days after surgery." The three-time All-Star was off to a fantastic start to the season and had six home runs, 12 RBIs, and was slashing .280/.398/.551 in 31 games played. It's nice to hear that he already has his cast off, but it still will be a long road until he is back on the field for the Cardinals.

St. Louis has started to turn things around and has won four of its last five games but it still has a lot of work to do.Patrick McAvoy's experiences include local and national sports coverage at the New England Sports Network with a focus on baseball and basketball. Outside of journalism, Patrick also is pursuing an MBA at Brandeis University.
