Holliday (undisclosed) remains out of the Cardinals' lineup Monday.
Holliday was removed from Friday's game after being hit by a pitch, and he hasn't returned since. The veteran outfielder had been limited to pinch hitting duties due to a quad injury anyway, so his absence could be a combination of the two issues.

The Cardinals activated Holliday from the DL on Tuesday but will not immediately return him to the starting lineup.

Tue Sep 15 201516:17Matt Holliday: (Quad) Activated From DL
Holliday (quadriceps) was activated from the 15-day DL on Tuesday.
Quad issues have sent Holliday to the DL on two separate occasions this season, limiting him to just 11 games since June 9. He's shown enough to warrant activation to the roster, but it's uncertain if Holliday will be without restriction immediately upon his return. The Cardinals have yet to release their lineup for Tuesday.

Holliday (quad) indicated that he fully intends on returning before the end of the regular season, but still hasn't done much running outside of a few sprints, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Holliday admitted he hasn't run hard enough yet to know if he's getting close to a return so he could still be a week or two away from returning to the club.

Holliday (quad) may likely return this season according to general manager John Mozeliak, the St. Louis-Post Dispatch reports.
Holliday's injury isn't as serious as the one he suffered in June of this year which should lead to a faster recovery. Mozeliak suggested that it would be one to two weeks before the Cardinals would be able to determine a time table.
Fri Jul 31 201511:03Matt Holliday: (Quadriceps) Likely To Return This Season
St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Matt Holliday is likely to return this season after suffering another quadriceps injury, according to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Matt Holliday is likely to return this season after suffering another quadriceps injury, according to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. Holliday suffered a recurrence of a strained right quadriceps that cost him six weeks earlier this year, and it was initially feared that he would be out much longer this time. "We’re still very hopeful that he’ll be able to contribute this year,” Cardinals general manager John Mozeliak said Thursday. “A lot will be really determined over the next week or two. It’s my understanding that it’s not as deep as last time, which is encouraging, but you’ve still got to [give it time to] heal. It’s very disappointing because we were hopeful that he’d be back in that lineup. When he was playing, you saw the glimpses of why he’s important to this team.” Holliday will be reevaluated in one to two weeks, at which point a firmer timetable for his recovery could be established.

St. Louis Cardinals left fielder Matt Holliday has been placed on the 15-day disabled list with a strained right quadriceps, according to USA Today. He suffered the injury -- an aggravation of his previous quad ailment -- in Wednesday's 1-0 loss to the Cincinnati Reds. Holliday was already on the disabled list from June 9 to July 12 due to a previous injury to the same muscle, missing 31 games of action. There is no word yet on how much time Holliday will miss with this latest issue, but St. Louis acquired outfielder Brandon Moss from the Cleveland Indians on Thursday. Holliday, who is hitting .290 with four home runs and 31 RBI, has played in 63 of the Cardinals' 111 games this season. This year will be the first time he's played in fewer than 120 games in his 12-year career.

Holliday will likely be placed on the 15-day DL on Thursday, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
Holliday departed Wednesday's game with a strained quad, and he appears poised to return to the disabled list, where he spent six weeks earlier this season.

Look out for official confirmation from the team later Thursday.

Holliday suffered the injury during Wednesday's game while trying to beat out a double play and was removed afterward. The veteran spent six weeks on the disabled list with the same injury earlier this season. "Only thing I do know, it's the same spot as before," manager Mike Matheny said. "He's getting a MRI tonight. No results as of yet, but trying to get it looked at as quick as possible to see the severity. I can't deny the fact that it plays into the equation [at the trade deadline]. I think once we have a better idea of what kind of severity there is to the injury, we'll have a better idea of what we need to do to move forward. I don't think this is something that we would completely write off as an area where we'd have to look." More information will be released when the results of Holliday's MRI are available.
