Cardinals purchased the contract of RHP Victor Marte from Triple-A Memphis.
He'll take the spot of Scott Linebrink (shoulder). Marte pitched well at Triple-A last year for the Cards, posting a 1.44 ERA over 55 appearances, and he allowed just one run over 10 innings this spring. He's 31, though, and holds a career 9.30 ERA and 26/27 K/BB ratio over 39 2/3 big league innings. Needless to say, we're not expecting much.
