Cardinals place Westbrook on 15-day DL

Sports

May 13th, 2013 by Ric Hanson

ST. LOUIS (AP) — The Cardinals put right-hander Jake Westbrook on the 15-day disabled list with elbow inflammation and plan to select the contract of left-hander John Gast in time for Tuesday night’s game against the New York Mets. To make room for Gast on the major league roster, the team said Sunday that injured closer Jason Motte will be moved to the 60-day disabled list while rehabilitating from reconstructive elbow surgery. Westbrook is 2-1 with a 1.62 ERA in seven starts. His DL move was retroactive to May 9.

Gast was the team’s minor league player of the month in April, going 3-1 with a 1.16 ERA in six starts at Triple-A Memphis. He began the season with 32 consecutive scoreless innings.

Iowa early News Headlines: Mon., May 13th 2013

Here is the latest Iowa news from The Associated Press

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Some Iowans are starting to worry about what a debate about IowaCare means for their doctor visits. About 66,000 residents are currently enrolled in the program. Democrats who control the state Senate favor a Medicaid expansion. Republicans who hold a majority in the House oppose the expansion.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — It’s unlikely a bill that would make changes to the state’s system for inspecting school buses will pass this year. A bill that would require buses with serious problems to be re-inspected has passed the Iowa Senate. But some lawmakers now want to shift inspections out of the Education Department and into the state Transportation Department.

ONAWA, Iowa (AP) — An Iowa man is facing charges after trying to evade police at speeds up to 120 miles per hour. The chase happened Friday afternoon when the Ida County Sheriff’s Department tried to stop Barry Young. Young faces a felony charge of eluding arrest, several drug charges and numerous traffic violations.

WAVERLY, Iowa (AP) — An Iowa lawyer and former police officer lost his law license after being convicted of drug and forgery charges. Brian Stowe was convicted of possessing methamphetamine and forging two checks in 2011. Supreme Court Justice David Wiggins says theft by lawyers won’t be tolerated.
