JoJo Romero, the lefty the Cardinals acquired from Philadelphia for shortstop Edmundo Sosa, will join the team at Chase Field on Friday as the team opens a three-game visit to Arizona. Closer Ryan Helsley went on paternity leave Friday afternoon to open up a spot on the active roster. He is expected to rejoin the team in Chicago on Monday. The Cardinals also optioned Juan Yepez to Class AAA Memphis, where he will continue his recovery from an arm injury. The Cardinals brought catcher Ivan Herrera to Arizona to serve on the taxi squad as they begin an eight-game, seven-day road trip. Romero, 25, made three appearances for Triple-A Memphis after coming to the Cardinals near the trade deadline. He struck out five in three innings and allowed one hit. The Redbirds had him finish two games. Overall this season in the minors, he's done what the Cardinals continue to see from the left side of the bullpen. To paraphrase manager Oliver Marmol, he misses bats. In 15 innings total, Romero has 20 strikeouts in 15 innings against two walks. In brief cameo in the majors with the Phillies this season did not go as well. He allowed half of the 10 batters he faced to reach base, three of them scored, and in two innings he had a 13.50 ERA.
