The Cardinals placed Mark DeRosa on the 15-day disabled list on Tuesday, just 10 days after he was acquired from Cleveland.

Mark DeRosa, whom the Cardinals acquired in a trade with Cleveland just more than two weeks ago, is headed to the 15-day disabled list with a left wrist strain. DeRosa, who played just three games with the Cardinals before injuring the wrist, was initially thought to be rejoining the Cardinals in Milwaukee tonight for the start of a three-game series. However, after an examination of the wrist on Monday, the team announced this afternoon that he will be moved to the disabled list, retroactive to July 1.

Cardinals general manager John Mozeliak described Monday night’s decision to place infielder-outfielder Mark DeRosa on the disabled list as “precautionary” and insists he is “very optimistic” the team’s recent trade acquisition will be activated after the All-Star break.

Though a statement issued by the team referred only to infielder-outfielder Mark DeRosa’s left wrist strain as reason for him landing on the disabled list, the Cardinals’ June 27 trade acquisition is apparently suffering from a torn tendon sheath that casts doubt on his return immediately following the All-Star break.
