Cardinals rookie JJ Wetherholt goes on 10-day injured list with right wrist tendinitis
The St. Louis Cardinals have placed rookie infielder JJ Wetherholt on the 10-day injured list due to right wrist tendinitis. This news was announced on Sunday. Wetherholt had been struggling at the plate, going hitless in his last two games. Despite this, he has managed to contribute to the team's success, batting .242 with 17 home runs, 48 RBIs, and 88 runs scored since joining the Cardinals as their leadoff hitter.
To fill Wetherholt's spot, the team has called up infielder Cesar Prieto from Triple-A Memphis. Prieto has had a brief stint in the majors, collecting three hits in his 15 career big-league games.
