Cardinals continue roster shakeup

08/06/2008 -
St. Louis, MO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The St. Louis Cardinals recalled reliever
Chris Perez from Triple-A Memphis Wednesday, one of a series of moves for the
contending club.
The club also optioned outfielder Nick Stavinoha and infielder Brendan Ryan to
Memphis, one day after signing free-agent infielder Felipe Lopez.
Perez, 23, went 2-1 with a 4.18 earned run average in 23 games for St. Louis
earlier this season.
The hard-throwing righty may join what Cardinals manager Tony LaRussa
described as an open closer's role, following Jason Isringhausen's meltdown
Tuesday night. The Dodgers forced extras with a four-run ninth but eventually
dropped the contest 6-4 in 11 innings. Perez has 11 saves for Memphis this
season and had 35 last season, splitting time between Memphis and Double-A
Springfield.
Stavinoha batted .200 (5-for-25) with four RBI in 12 games after being
recalled from Memphis, while Ryan was hitting .242 with 26 runs scored and
nine RBI in 68 games at the time of his demotion.
Lopez was released by the Washington Nationals last week in a roster upheaval.
The 28-year-old was hitting .234 with 20 doubles and 25 RBI in 100 games this
season.
The club also announced that pitcher Matt Clement cleared waivers and was
given his unconditional release.
