Cardinals placed second baseman Adam Kennedy on the 15-day disabled list with a torn medial meniscus.
Kennedy will miss 4-6 weeks because of the injury.
Brendan Ryan is likely to take over as the primary second baseman in his place, with Aaron Miles remaining in a utility role.
The Cardinals might as well make Ryan their primary second baseman while Adam Kennedy is out.
They need to see whether he's a realistic choice to replace David Eckstein next year.
He's hit .339/.397/.452 in 62 at-bats for St. Louis this season.
Lets hope this injury doesn’t hurt the Cardinals too much in their run on making a charge.
