Cardinals Demote Kolten Wong In Headscratching Move

When the Cardinals traded David Freese to the Angels back in November, their path to improvement appeared clear: Shift Matt Carpenter to third base, promote well-regarded second base prospect Kolten Wong to regular duty, and install newly-acquired Peter Bourjos as the starting centerfielder. Just 25 games into the season, the team has scrapped that plan, or at least shelved it by demoting Wong to Triple-A Memphis and recalling the other outfielder obtained in the Freese deal, Randall Grichuk.
