"After speaking with our medical staff and consulting with other experts, we have come to the conclusion to put Jason LaRue on the 60-day disabled list," said General Manager John Mozeliak.

Cardinals third baseman David Freese underwent reconstructive surgery on his right ankle Thursday in Vail, Col., according to a source familiar with the situation.

The procedure involved reattaching a tendon to his ankle, which suffered extensive damage as Freese was on a minor-league rehab assignment Monday in Springfield, Mo.

Thursday's procedure, performed by Dr. Thomas Clanton at the Steadman Clinic, will require at least six months of rehabilitation, according to the source.

Freese's availability for the beginning of next spring training is uncertain. -- STLToday.com

With third baseman David Freese set to come off the disabled list shortly, the Cardinals sent infielder Tyler Greene onto the 15-day DL on Sunday with a right-hand contusion.
Greene has been playing with the injured hand since July 17, when he was struck during an at-bat. He had played in eight games since suffering the injury, but the hand was kept heavily wrapped the whole time.

Moving Greene onto the disabled list allowed the Cardinals to place newly acquired Jake Westbrook on the active roster. -- MLB.com

Ottavino is sidelined due to what the club called a SLAP tear in his shoulder. On July 15, the Cardinals announced that Ottavino would undergo an operation to repair the injury. But he told reporters on Monday that he believes other options may still exist. -- MLB.com
