Siegrist (forearm) will head to High-A Palm Beach on Wednesday to begin a rehab assignment, Jenifer Langosch of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

After throwing back-to-back bullpen sessions without any setbacks, Siegrist will head down to Florida to begin his rehab assignment with the High-A Palm Beach squad. Immediately following the second bullpen session, it wasn't certain if Siegrist was going to need any time on a rehab trip so expect the process to only last one or two outings before he is activated.

Siegrist (forearm) threw another successful bullpen session at Busch Stadium on Thursday, Jenifer Langosch of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The recovering reliever logged two setback-free bullpens during this past week, setting up a third such session this coming Sunday. Siegrist will then be evaluated to determine whether or not a minor-league rehab stint will be necessary before he's activated.

Siegrist (forearm) threw a bullpen session Tuesday at Busch Stadium and is slated for another later in the week, Jenifer Langosch of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Assuming he doesn't have any lingering effects from Tuesday's activity on Wednesday, Siegrist will engage in another session either Thursday or Friday. Cardinals president of baseball operations John Mozeliak has stated a decision on whether or not the reliever will need a minor-league rehab stint will be made at that point.

Siegrist was placed on the 10-day disabled list Sunday due to left forearm tendinitis, Jenifer Langosch of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

This move will allow Adam Wainwright to return from the DL to start Sunday's contest with the Reds. No word has come forth as to how the injury occurred or how severe it is, so it's tough to gauge how much time Siegrist will be forced to miss due to this issue, although forearm injuries are never anything to scoff at.

Siegrist recorded his fifth hold in Monday's 8-2 win over the Rockies, pitching a scoreless two-thirds of an inning and recording a strikeout.

EDGE Analysis

The 28-year-old southpaw has been impressive since being activated from the disabled list on July 13, generating four scoreless efforts and posting an 8:1 K:BB over 3.2 innings during that span. Siegrist has been prone to the occasional stumble, but his strikeout upside keeps him relative viable from a fantasy perspective in deep NL-only formats that count holds.

Siegrist fired a scoreless eighth inning in which he allowed a walk and struck out the side in Monday's 6-3 win over the Mets.

EDGE Analysis

Siegrist was deployed in a set-up role to Brett Cecil, who would go on to earn his first save of the season with scoreless ninth. It was the 27-year-old's first outing since being activated from a stint on the disabled list that was brought about a cervical strain, and given the results, he appears to be back at full health.

Siegrist (back) was activated from the 10-day DL on Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Siegrist was placed on the DL on June 25 in response to a cervical spine strain. The left-hander has progressed in a timely manner over the past two weeks, adding two rehab appearances under his belt in the process. Although Siegrist wasn't particularly sharp during his latest outing (two earned runs off three hits and a walk in one inning), the reliever should slide back into his normal role out of the bullpen moving forward.

Siegrist (back) allowed two earned runs on three hits and a walk over one inning for Double-A Springfield on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Siegrist had put together a solid 16-pitch effort for Springfield on Friday in his first rehab appearance, but he ran into some trouble Sunday while working up to 24 pitches. The 28-year-old's next outing could potentially transpire at Triple-A Memphis if the Cardinals opt to have him work against a higher level of competition, although they could also potentially deem ready for a return to the big-league club to start the second half of the season.

Siegrist (back) fired a scoreless inning for Double-A Springfield on Friday, giving up a hit and recording a strikeout.

EDGE Analysis

The outing marked the left-hander's first time on the mound since June 22, and Siegrist certainly provided plenty of reason for optimism with his performance. The 28-year-old is likely to make multiple appearances in the minors before being deemed ready for a return.

Siegrist will head to Double-A Springfield on Friday to begin a rehab assignment, Jim Hayes of Fox Sports Midwest reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 28-year-old has been out for almost two weeks now with a cervical spine sprain, but has progressed to the point where he can face live batters at the minor-league level. Siegrist threw a pain-free bullpen Monday and is likely going to appear in multiple rehab starts before rejoining the Redbirds following the All-Star break, barring any setbacks.
