Cardinals Place Carlos Martinez On Injured List

The St. Louis Cardinals announced prior to tonight’s game that they have placed right-handed pitcher Carlos Martínez (right ankle) on the 10-day Injured List, retroactive to May 9.  The team also announced that right-handed pitcher Johan Oviedo has been recalled from Memphis (AAA).

Martínez, who posted a 9-8 win over the Rockies last Saturday (May 8), is 3-4 with a 4.35 ERA in seven starts this season, limiting the opposition to a .219 BA and just two home runs.

Oviedo (0-1, 4.61) has made three appearances (two starts) for the Cardinals this season. The rookie right-hander worked 2.2 innings, throwing 48 pitches, in a start for Memphis this past Sunday (May 9).

Oviedo wears uniform no. 59.
