Francisco Alvarez is back! Just four weeks after meniscus surgery, Alvarez is starting at catcher and batting ninth.

Kodai Senga, unfortunately, was shut down from his rehab assignment with an ulnar nerve issue. His time with the Mets may be coming to a close.

Jorge Polanco will not be shut down due to Achilles bursitis and will DH on rehab within the next couple of days.

The Cardinals activated outfielder Nathan Church from the injured list and optioned Victor Scott II to the minors.
