Walker (ankle) is starting in right field and batting cleanup Sunday against the White Sox.

1w agoRotowire

The 24-year-old outfielder was held out of the lineup Saturday after exiting Friday's contest due to an ankle issue, but he's good to go for the series finale versus Chicago. Walker has been scuffling at the plate over his past seven games, going 3-for-23 with two walks, a double and eight strikeouts.

Walker isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the White Sox, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

Walker was pulled from Friday's game in the eighth inning after tweaking his ankle, and the Cardinals will hold him out of action for another day while he recovers. Jose Fermin, Nathan Church and Joshua Baez will form St. Louis' outfield trio while Walker sits.

Walker is absent from the lineup for Wednesday's contest in San Francisco.

It's the first time Walker has been out of the Cardinals' lineup since he missed two games in early August with a minor knee injury. Joshua Baez will shift over to right field, and Bryan Torres will handle left field as St. Louis looks to avoid the sweep.

Walker went 3-for-5 with a two-run home run, a double and a second run scored in Tuesday's 13-8 win over the Dodgers.

Walker had gone eight games without a homer, picking up just one double and one RBI in that stretch. He broke out of the slump with a fourth-inning blast in this contest. Walker is batting .288 with an .850 OPS, 28 homers, 30 doubles, 18 stolen bases, 99 RBI and 88 runs scored across 135 games this season.

Walker went 3-for-5 with a two-run home run and a second run scored in Friday's 7-6 extra-inning loss to the Phillies.

The young slugger took Jesus Luzardo deep in the sixth inning to briefly give the Cardinals a 4-3 lead in a wild, back-and-forth affair. Walker has homered in three straight games while extending a hit streak to seven games, a blistering stretch in which he's batting .467 (14-for-30). That surge has pushed his slash line on the season up to .291/.350/.513 with 28 doubles, 27 home runs, 17 steals, 81 runs and an MLB-leading 96 RBI, tied with the Reds' Sal Stewart.
