Cardinals place RHP Matt Belisle on 15-day DL (The Associated Press)

ST. LOUIS (AP) -- The St. Louis Cardinals placed right-handed reliever Matt Belisle on the 15-day disabled list with elbow inflammation, retroactive to June 28.

Right-hander Marcus Hatley's contract was purchased from Triple-A Memphis. To make room on the 40-man roster, reliever Jordan Walden was transferred from the 15-day disabled list to the 60-day DL.

The 35-year-old Belisle is 1-1 with a 3.00 ERA in 30 games with 24 strikeouts in 30 innings.

This is the first call-up for the 27-year-old Hatley, who joined the team for a two-game interleague series against the White Sox beginning Tuesday night.
