Cardinals Recall Michael Siani From Triple-A
The St. Louis Cardinals announced on Thursday that they recalled outfielder Michael Siani from Triple-A Memphis and optioned right-hander Chris Roycroft to Memphis and designated outfielder Ryan Vilade for assignment in corresponding moves. Siani played in 18 games with the Cardinals earlier this year before being sent down and went 4-for-16 with four runs scored, one walk and six strikeouts. The 25-year-old could see some occasional starts in center field to spell Victor Scott II, but he will most likely be a bench outfielder for the Cards in his return to the big leagues. In 124 games for St. Louis last year, Siani slashed .228/.285/.285 with a weak .570 OPS, two home runs, 20 RBI, 42 runs scored and 20 stolen bases in 334 plate appearances. He's really only an option for depth in NL-only leagues for his speed.
