Cardinals purchased the contract of RHP Adam Ottavino from Triple-A Memphis. Ottavino, who turns 26 next week, compiled a 4.85 ERA and 120/71 K/BB ratio over 141 innings at the Triple-A level this season. The Cardinals removed him from the 40-man roster following the 2010 season due to a small tear in his right labrum, but they appear confident that his career is back on track. There's a chance he gets a shot as a reliever down the road.
