Cardinals' Victor Scott: Day off Tuesday
Rotowire
Scott isn't in the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Dodgers, John Denton of MLB.com reports.
Scott will receive a day to rest Tuesday after going 3-for-15 with five strikeouts to begin the month. Alec Burleson, Lars Nootbaar and Jordan Walker will start across the Cardinals' outfield while Scott is out.
Scott went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Friday's 7-3 loss to the Diamondbacks.
Scott provided some offense in the ninth inning, but the Cardinals' rally still fell far short. This was just his second extra-base hit over 12 games in July, and he's gone 7-for-40 (.175) with two stolen bases in that span. The speedy outfielder has a .235/.317/.330 slash line with five homers, 33 RBI, 41 runs scored and 24 stolen bases over 91 contests this season.

Cardinals' Victor Scott: Sitting against lefty
Rotowire
Scott is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Reds.
Scott owns a .498 OPS over 80 plate appearances versus southpaws this season, and the Cardinals are shielding him from those matchups. He'll take a seat Sunday against southpaw Andrew Abbott, paving the way for Jose Barrero to pick up a start in center field.
Scott went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer and an additional run scored in Tuesday's win over the White Sox.
Scott joined in on the run-scoring parade with a two-run blast in the ninth to make it a 12-2 ballgame. The home run was his third of the year and his first since April 30, though this one came against position player Vinny Capra. Scott now has five RBI and a steal in his last four games and has six hits in his last seven games after beginning the month 0-for-17 at the plate.

Cardinals' Victor Scott: Not starting against lefty Sunday
Rotowire
Scott isn't in the starting lineup for Sunday's tilt against the Dodgers, John Denton of MLB.com reports.
Scott will begin on the bench Sunday as veteran southpaw Clayton Kershaw takes the mound for Los Angeles.

Cardinals' Victor Scott: Sitting for first game of day
Rotowire
Scott is out of the lineup for the first game of Thursday's doubleheader versus the Royals.
The Royals are sending a southpaw (Noah Cameron) to the bump for the first game of the twin bill, so the left-handed-hitting Scott will take a seat while Lars Nootbaar slides over to center field. Scott is slashing just .185/.274/.222 in 64 plate appearances versus lefties on the season.

Cardinals' Victor Scott: Stays hot with two hits
Rotowire
Scott went 2-for-3 with a run scored and a stolen base in Friday's 4-3 win over Arizona.
Scott has put together a modest four-game hitting streak, submitting multiple knocks in two of those outings. The speedy outfielder has 10 multi-hit efforts this year, and he's batting .317 (20-for-63) with one home run, eight RBI, 13 runs scored and five stolen bases over his last 21 games. While Scott has plenty of upside in the speed department, his overall fantasy appeal will likely remain restricted as long as he's hitting near the bottom of the Cardinals' lineup.

Cardinals' Victor Scott: Swipes two bags in win
Rotowire
Scott went 1-for-5 with two stolen bases and two runs scored in a 14-7 win over the Phillies in Game 2 of Wednesday's doubleheader.
Scott didn't do much until late in the doubleheader -- he went 0-for-3 in the first game and didn't get his lone hit until the eighth inning of the nightcap. He also reached on a fielder's choice in the ninth. The speedster is up to 13 steals on 14 attempts this season, good for a share of fifth in the majors. He's added a reliable .278/.342/.383 slash line with two home runs, 18 RBI, 22 runs scored, six doubles and a triple over 40 contests.

Cardinals' Victor Scott: Sitting against southpaw
Rotowire
Scott is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Phillies.
The left-handed-hitting Scott had been part of the lineup each of the last nine games -- including two starts against left-handed pitchers -- but he'll hit the bench for the series opener in Philadelphia while the Phillies send southpaw Cristopher Sanchez to the bump. Jose Barrero will draw the start in center field and could serve as an occasional platoon mate for Scott, who is slashing .226/.306/.258 with a 31.6 percent strikeout rate in 38 plate appearances against lefties on the season.
Cardinals' Victor Scott: Getting breather Thursday
Rotowire
Scott is not in the lineup for Thursday's game in Cincinnati.
