EDGE Analysis

Gant made one appearance for St. Louis during his cup of coffee in the big leagues, allowing two runs on three hits in 3.1 innings pitched. With his arm unavailable for the next few days, he'll head to the minors, although he could return soon once he's had ample time to rest up. Chad Huffman was summoned from the minors to replace him on the big-league roster.
