Worth noting

• Matheny said that Wainwright is scheduled to play catch on Wednesday to again test his right elbow, which has been bothered by tendinitis. The Cardinals still expect Wainwright to be ready to make his next scheduled start on Saturday.

• Reliever David Aardsma, who the Cardinals recently considered for a callup, has been placed on the Triple-A disabled list with a right groin injury. The injury, general manager John Mozeliak confirmed, is related to a hip issue that has been recently bothering Aardsma. Aardsma pitched a scoreless inning for Memphis on Monday.

• The Cardinals announced plans to hold two Busch Stadium events with Hall of Famer Bob Gibson on July 16-17, during which fans will have a photo opportunity with the 1967 World Series championship trophy, dinner and drinks, a 90-minute question-and-answer session with broadcaster Dan McLaughlin and receive a Gibson autographed baseball.

• Triple-A outfielder Stephen Piscotty extended his hitting streak to nine games with a two-hit performance in Memphis' 3-1 loss on Monday. Piscotty has hit safely in 16 of his last 17 games, posting a .377 batting average during that stretch. He leads the club with 24 multihit games.
