Daniel Ponce de Leon to take the mound for the Cardinals Friday

St. Louis Cardinals pitcher Daniel Ponce de Leon will start on Friday against the New York Mets.

What It Means:

Ponce de Leon gets the nod with Adam Wainright on the injured list with a hamstring injury. The 27-year-old made 4 starts in 2018 but just 1 in 2019.

Ponce de Leon went 5 innings, allowing just 2 hits and 1 run while walking 3 and striking out 7 in his only other start of the season.
