The St. Louis Cardinals activated first baseman/outfielder Alec Burleson from the 10-day injured list (right wrist inflammation) in advance of the team's three-game set at Seattle on Monday.

Burleson leads the team in batting average (.286) and has 16 home runs and 60 RBIs. He played in all four games of a series against Pittsburgh from Aug. 25-28 before landing on the IL.

The club also selected the contract of southpaw Nick Raquet from Triple-A Memphis, who will make his major league debut if he takes the mound.

The Cardinals signed Raquet, 29, as a minor league free agent in January 2024. He has appeared in 132 minor league games, including 36 this season. Raquet compiled a 10-4 mark between Memphis and Double-A Springfield with a 1.68 ERA and 1.055 WHIP.

Raquet was a third-round draft selection of the Washington Nationals in 2017.

The Cardinals optioned right-handed pitcher Andre Granillo to Memphis and designated utility man Garrett Hampson for assignment.

St. Louis (72-72) will play three in Milwaukee after the quick stop on the West Coast. The Cardinals are 4 1/2 games behind the New York Mets for the final National League wild-card spot.
