St. Louis Cardinals: Jose Oquendo taking Medical Leave

Even when the St. Louis Cardinals players have a decent stretch of good health (of course following the Jhonny Peralta thing), I’m not sure if anybody in the organization is safe in the injury department.

According to a press release from the Cardinals earlier this afternoon, “The Secret Weapon”, Jose Oquendo will be “taking a medical leave of absence from the team for the foreseeable future.”

Oquendo underwent a second procedure of the offseason on his right knee earlier this spring, and was originally able to return to the club with the help of crutches about a week ago.
