The St. Louis Cardinals announced today they have activated left-hander pitcher Kevin Siegrist from the 15-day disabled list and optioned right-handed pitcher Sam Tuivailala to Triple-A Memphis.
Siegrist, who will turn 27 next Wednesday (July 20), has been out since June 30 with mononucleosis. The Cardinals hurler was 5-2 with a 2.78 ERA and one save in 35 relief appearances this season covering 32.1 innings with 34 strikeouts at the time of his placement on the disabled list. He is tied for the National League lead among relief pitchers with five wins.
Tuivailala, 23, made three relief appearances from July 3-6, allowing three runs over 2.0 innings total with two scoreless appearances against the Pirates.
