Wednesday, August 27, 2008

ST. LOUIS (AP) The St. Louis Cardinals placed outfielder Brian Barton on the 15-day disabled list with a strained right side muscle on Tuesday.

Barton, selected in the Rule 5 draft last winter, is hitting .269 with two homers and 13 RBIs in 130 at-bats. He was injured beating out a bunt for a single during a career-best three-hit game on Sunday.

Outfielder Nick Stavinoha, batting .337 with 16 home runs and 74 RBIs at Triple-A Memphis, was recalled for his third stint with the team. He was batting .200 (5-for-25) with four RBIs for St. Louis.
