Cardinals place Oviedo in quarantine; rookie had contact with person who tested positive for COVID-19

The Cardinals greet the third of their six doubleheaders in a fortnight in much the same way they've greeted all the rest.

If anything, they've become familiar with revamping the roster on the fly.

The Cardinals placed righthander Johan Oviedo, their rookie who has helped them complete the rotation during this challenging stretch, on the injured list because he had contact with someone who tested positive for COVID-19.

The Cardinals have removed Oviedo from the team and had him tested regularly. He has not tested positive and he has no symptoms.

The Cardinals are hopeful he can start Monday.
