Cardinals DFA Erick Fedde on Wednesday
Erick Fedde for assignment on Wednesday and recalled right-hander Andre Granillo from Triple-A Memphis in a corresponding move, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports. For now, rookie Michael McGreevy will replace Fedde in St. Louis' rotation and make another start this weekend on Sunday against the San Diego Padres. Fedde gets the boot off St. Louis' roster after surrendering 26 runs with 11 walks and only eight strikeouts in 17 2/3 innings over his last five starts. He just was not effective enough in going 3-10 with a 5.22 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and 63 strikeouts in 101 2/3 innings of work over his 20 starts. McGreevy doesn't have overpowering stuff and only has a 6.1 K/9 in 51 1/3 innings in the last two years, but he has held a 2.81 ERA in nine MLB outings (seven starts) dating back to last year.
