Cardinals' Jordan Walden goes on 15-day disabled list (The Associated Press)

ST. LOUIS (AP) -- Cardinals setup man Jordan Walden has been placed on the 15-day disabled list because of an inflamed right biceps. Reliever Sam Tuivailala was recalled from Triple-A Memphis.

Walden stopped warming up in the eighth inning Saturday. He's 0-1 with an 0.87 ERA in 12 games with 12 strikeouts in 10 1-3 innings.

The Cardinals also said they would recall lefty Tyler Lyons from Memphis to start Tuesday against the Cubs.

The 22-year-old Tuivailala has three saves and has not allowed an earned run in eight appearances covering nine innings at Memphis.
