Heyward sat out Saturday's game against Kansas City due to tightness in his hip and is considered day-to-day, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

Analysis:

Heyward had missed just one game this season prior to Saturday night's contest, and while the Cardinals will want him to get right before sending him back out, they are already down an outfielder with Jon Jay (wrist) currently on the disabled list. Owners should monitor Heyward's status over the next couple of days.
