Wieters (calf) is taking batting practice from both sides of the plate, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Wieters is reportedly making good progress from his left calf strain. Once the veteran backstop is able to do calf raises without discomfort, he'll be able to add to the baseball activities he's cleared to perform. Wieters remains without a firm timetable for return at the moment, although he is expected back before the conclusion of the regular season.

Wieters (calf) was sporting a boot on his left leg Monday and also received an anti-inflammatory shot earlier in the day, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Wieters suffered his calf strain while running the bases Saturday and doesn't have a firm timetable to return. The arrival of both Andrew Knizner and Joe Hudson from Triple-A Memphis helps cushion Wieters' absence for the moment. Wieters, who's been serviceable as Yadier Molina's backup this season, should be able to return well before the end of the regular season.

Wieters has a mild calf strain and is expected to be sidelined for a few days, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Wieters apparently suffered the injury during Saturday's doubleheader as he went 0-for-3 during the nightcap. Andrew Knizner and Joe Hudson joined the club as part of the September roster expansion and will provide catching depth behind Yadier Molina.

Wieters is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Brewers.

EDGE Analysis

As anticipated, Wieters has transitioned back into a lightly used backup role following top backstop Yadier Molina's return from the injured list Aug. 13. Wieters will be on the bench for the seventh time in eight games and might not be in store for more than one start per week while the Cardinals remain in contention for both the NL Central title and a wild-card spot.

Wieters is not in Sunday's lineup against the Pirates.

EDGE Analysis

He is hitting .246 with five home runs in 19 games since the All-Star break. Andrew Knizner will start behind the dish, hitting seventh. Yadier Molina (thumb) is expected to be activated from the injured list either Tuesday or Wednesday against the Royals.

Wieters is out of the lineup for Sunday's game at Oakland.

EDGE Analysis

Wieters started the last five games and went 5-for-19 with one double, one home run, three RBI and eight strikeouts. Andrew Knizner will take over behind the plate and bat ninth Sunday.

Wieters went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run during Thursday's 8-0 win over the Cubs.

EDGE Analysis

Wieters provided the biggest hit of the night in the sixth inning, launching a three-run home run to break the game open. He's been on a bit of a power surge of late, swatting four home runs in his last nine games overall. With Yadier Molina (thumb) progressing slowly, Wieters should continue to see regular playing time and will look to take advantage as he did in this one.

Wieters is not in Saturday's lineup against the Astros.

EDGE Analysis

He is 4-for-17 (.235) with three home runs and four strikeouts over his last five games. Andrew Knizner will start behind the dish, hitting eighth.

Wieters went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Friday's 5-3 win over the Astros.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran catcher has gone yard in three of his last five starts, and Wieters is now slashing .235/.291/.496 on the year with nine homers and 19 RBI. Yadier Molina (thumb) still has no timetable for his return, so Wieters will continue to split time behind the plate with Andrew Knizner, giving him modest fantasy appeal in deep two-catcher formats.

Wieters is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Pirates.

EDGE Analysis

Wieters was behind the plate for the first two games of the series in Pittsburgh, so he's likely just receiving a breather Wednesday. Andrew Knizner will handle the catching duties, working in a battery with Adam Wainwright.
