Cards 3B Nolan Arenado (sprained finger) taken out vs. Braves
Arenado, who was 1-for-3, was replaced in the seventh inning by Thomas Saggese. While it was unclear how Arenado hurt the finger, it is the same injury that kept him out of two games last week during a series against the Pittsburgh Pirates.
The Cardinals tried to trade the eight-time All-Star and 10-time Gold Glove winner last offseason but could not find a suitable partner, and the 34-year-old was expected to be a trade candidate ahead of the July 31 deadline.
Arenado raised his average to .246 with his single Friday. He has 10 home runs and 42 RBIs in 84 games this season.
Earlier in the same game, the Braves also removed their third baseman, saying Austin Riley was experiencing lower abdominal tightness. Riley drove in the game's opening run on a first-inning single.

NFL first-round draft pick Treylon Burks fractures collar bone in crushing blow to Tennessee Titans
The Tennessee Titans have been hit with a disappointing setback with wide receiver Treylon Burks reportedly breaking his collar bone in practice. The 25-year-old Burks, a first-round pick by the Titans in 2022 NFL Draft, is said to have sustained the injury making a catch on Saturday. Tests are still being carried out on Burks, multiple reports said Saturday afternoon, but at the very least he is expected to miss the start of the season. The move sparked Titans head coach Brian Callahan into immediate action. The team swooped for Ramal Keyton, who played for the Las Vegas Raiders in 2024 after going undrafted that same year.. With the Titans having a day off on Sunday, Keyton is expected to meet his new teammates on Monday morning. It represents another frustrating injury for Burks. He tore his ACL in 2024, missing the back end of a difficult season for his team and during his first two campaigns, missed a total of 12 games. But 2025 represents a new season of optimism after drafting a new quarterback in Cam Ward with the first pick earlier this year. Burks has been looking to prove himself as a valuable weapon to his new teammate. When he has been healthy, Burks has recorded 53 catches to his name for 699 yards, scoring one touchdown. According to NFL Insider Ian Rapoport, Burks had reported to Titans camp in 'great shape' but got hurt taking a diving catch on the sidelines. After playing at college level for the Arkansas Razorbacks, the Titans took Burks with the 18th pick of the draft. The pick came their way as part of the deal that saw AJ Brown join the current Super Bowl champions, Philadelphia Eagles. The Titans, who ended last season with a miserable 3-14 record in the AFC South, start the new season on the road to the Denver Broncos on September 7.
