Garcia making progress in injury rehab

PITTSBURGH -- On Saturday, the Cardinals placed right-handed reliever Mitch Harris (strained right groin) on the 15-day disabled list, retroactive to Thursday, and optioned first baseman Xavier Scruggs to Triple-A Memphis. Accordingly, they recalled right-hander Sam Tuivailala and left-hander Nick Greenwood to work out of the bullpen.

Harris warmed up during Friday night's game, but manager Mike Matheny got word from the bullpen that something didn't feel right.
