Pittsburgh Pirates vs St. Louis Cardinals team news, injury reports & key players
Pittsburgh Pirates team news
Despite their 4-5 record, the Cardinals’ offense has been firing on all cylinders. They enter Monday with an eye-popping team slash line of .302/.383/.478 and are plating over six runs per game (6.33)—among the best in the league. Brendan Donovan has been particularly effective out of the gate, boasting an .873 OPS and two home runs, providing a solid spark at second base. Should Ivan Herrera miss any time, Donovan’s bat will be even more critical.
Liberatore, meanwhile, comes off a no-decision against the Angels where he tossed six innings, allowing three runs on six hits, striking out four without issuing a walk—a solid outing that showcased his control and composure.
St. Louis Cardinals team news
The Pirates, sitting at 3-7 and fifth in the NL Central, snapped a rough patch with a dramatic extra-innings walk-off win on Sunday. They’ll be hoping that momentum carries into this matchup. Offensively, though, it’s been a struggle—Pittsburgh ranks near the bottom of the majors (28th) with a dismal .586 team OPS and are averaging just 3.2 runs per contest.
They’ll lean on the dynamic Oneil Cruz, who’s flashed both power (2 HRs) and speed (7 SB) to jumpstart the lineup. On the mound, Mlodzinski is seeking a bounce-back after a tough outing against Tampa Bay in which he lasted just 3.2 innings, allowing four earned runs on seven hits with two walks and four strikeouts.

Pittsburgh natives Joe Manganiello and Caitlin O’Connor move to Mt. Lebanon
Pittsburgh-area natives Joe Manganiello and Caitlin O’Connor are returning to their roots.
Manganiello, from Mt. Lebanon, and O’Connor, from Uniontown, have bought a home in the South Hills after getting engaged this summer.
On Pittsburgh Today Live on Thursday, O’Connor talked about the couple’s move from Hollywood to Mt. Lebanon.
“It’s so nice to be home,” she said.
While Manganiello and O’Connor are happy to be back in southwestern Pennsylvania, O’Connor said it’ll be a bigger adjustment for the beloved chihuahua Bubbles. From the Pittsburgh Steelers fashion show to the gala celebrating the new airport terminal, the tiny dog is seemingly always in Manganiello’s arms.
“Bubbles is a California girl. She really doesn’t like the cold. We wrap her in a blanket and she has many, many puffy coats. I bought her a Steelers puffy to put in her stocking, so we’re going to see how she does over the next few months. But it’s not that long. It’s not forever. Winter will come and go,” O’Connor said.
And they all got quite the Pittsburgh welcome. O’Connor said it snowed when they were moving in, and Manganiello was outside shoveling for over two hours. She said she’s getting him a snowblower for Christmas.
The couple won’t be braving the Pittsburgh winter for too long. O’Connor said they’ll soon be off to South Africa, where Manganiello will film “One Piece” for Netflix. He’ll star as the villain Crocodile in the popular Japanese manga series.
“Bubbles will be in a better state,” O’Connor joked, saying it’s currently summer in South Africa. “I just bring Bubbles to set and hang out. It’s really the best job.”
