Rotowire
Paniagua (shoulder) was activated from High-A Peoria's injured list Friday.
Paniagua missed the first three months of the campaign while dealing with shoulder tightness. He logged 3.2 scoreless innings while allowing three hits and two walks with six strikeouts over three appearances with the Cardinals' FCL affiliate. Paniagua will likely spend the rest of 2023 with Peoria.

Paniagua is on the 7-day injured list at High-A Peoria with an undisclosed injury, Sam Dykstra of MLB.com reports.
The 23-year-old righty had a 2.81 ERA and a 145:39 K:BB in 137.2 innings in the lower minors last season. Scouting reports suggest Paniagua has the ceiling of a back-end starter due to his lack of a plus secondary offering and his fringe-average fastball velocity.
