ST. LOUIS (AP) Cardinals general manager John Mozeliak has announced several changes aimed at shaking up a disappointing offense that has the team off to a disappointing start in the National League Central.
Those changes include designating infielder Jhonny Peralta for assignment, activating second baseman Kolten Wong and the reassignment of third-base coach Chris Maloney to a to-be-determined position within the organization – along with the shuffling of several other assistant coaching positions.
St. Louis entered Friday’s game against Philadelphia with a 26-32 record, a year after missing the playoffs for the first time under manager Mike Matheny.
