Descalso rebuilding swing: Cardinals infielder Daniel Descalso returned to the starting lineup Wednesday against the Cubs for the first time in four games. Descalso, who has started a team-high 10 times at second base, is batting just .205 and has 13 strikeouts in 44 at-bats entering play Wednesday. "I'm just trying to find the swing I had at the start of the season," Descalso told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. "I'm building it from scratch. That's what I've been working on." (Updated 04/25/2012)

Fantasy Analysis
Descalso doesn't have a multi-hit game this season and his offensive struggles have opened the door for Tyler Greene, who has impressed manager Mike Matheny with his recent at-bats. Descalso is still expected to see starts for St. Louis, but he's not an everyday player. Descalso continues to have marginal Fantasy appeal. (Updated 04/25/2012).
