ST LOUIS -- Adam Wainwright will undergo another round of tests after an array of them failed to reveal the source of pain in his reconstructed right elbow, multiple Cardinals officials said Thursday. More telling of Wainwright's status than the scans was the transaction the club made prior to its series opener against the Phillies.
Forced to clear a spot on the 40-man roster to promote another catcher, after a hamstring strain landed Carson Kelly on the 10-day disabled list, the club did so by transferring Wainwright to the 60-day DL.
"When you're looking at the tests he went through, there was nothing that really stood out as a smoking gun," president of baseball operations John Mozeliak said.
