Cardinals place Cecil on DL, recall Sherriff

NEW YORK -- The Cardinals reshuffled their bullpen after making the signing of Greg Holland official on Saturday, placing reliever Brett Cecil on the 10-day disabled list with a left shoulder strain. Left-hander Ryan Sherriff was recalled from Triple-A Memphis and righty Alex Reyes was transferred to the 60-day disabled list in corresponding moves.

The Reyes transfer comes correlated to the signing of Holland, the reigning National League saves leader, and it pushes back the recovering 23-year-old's potential return date. After officially signing Holland to a one-year deal, the club had to clear a spot on its 40-man roster.
