Cardinals released INF Ty Wigginton. Signed to a two-year, $5 million deal during the offseason, Wigginton has done very little in limited playing time with the Cardinals this season, batting just .158/.238/.193 in 63 plate appearances. The 35-year-old should latch on elsewhere pretty quickly now that he can sign for the prorated major league minimum. The Cardinals have called up catch Rob Johnson to replace him on the active roster.
