[QUOTE="pruman91, post: 1768052, member: 3916"] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.stltoday.com/sports/baseball/professional/cardinals-reyes-must-deal-with-another-setback/article_e5fe495d-0ed3-5502-bcad-5fe24e68fcd6.html[/URL] [URL='https://www.stltoday.com/users/profile/rhummel']Rick Hummel[/URL] What more can happen to Alex Reyes? This seems to be the question asked annually by Cardinals fans — and the Cardinals themselves, for that matter. Right-hander Jake Woodford, who has pitched 13 innings but with a 2.08 earned run average for the Cardinals, was optioned to Memphis Sunday to make room on the roster for right-hander Adam Wainwright. But while Woodford will get more work by going to Memphis as a starter, right-hander Reyes, on the injured list with a frayed labrum, will get less work. Or, really, no work. Manager Oliver Marmol said that Reyes, who hasn’t pitched all this spring after showing up at camp with a sore shoulder, had encountered more soreness while playing catch as he threw off a mound this past week and underwent an MRI exam. Marmol reported that a second opinion now is being sought, but Reyes has been shut down again. Having missed all of spring training and the first six weeks of the season, Reyes would seem unlikely to pitch for the Cardinals this season until after the All-Star break in July, if then. “Unsure if it’s the same area,” said Marmol. “But it is shoulder discomfort.” Reyes was an All-Star last year as a top-notch closer in the first half of the season, but he weakened in the second half and lost his job. It was the first full season the oft-injured Reyes had been able to pitch since 2016, when he dazzled after being promoted to the big leagues. [/QUOTE]
