DENVER -- Kolten Wong has been dealing with lingering tightness in his left elbow for a week, and on Saturday night it finally landed him on the disabled list with an elbow strain.
Wong was scratched from the lineup immediately before Saturday's game, and by the time he left Coors Field, the Cardinals had made the decision put him on the disabled list and call up infielder Paul DeJong from Triple-A Memphis.
The roster move was made official before Sunday's series finale against the Rockies.
"I was fine the whole day [Saturday]," Wong said.
