Cards news: May 10 -- Back injury could sideline end season for O'Neil
Once again, the injury bug has taken a big bite out of St. Louis Cardinals outfielder Tyler O'Neil who has been diagnosed with a torn back muscle which could keep him out for the remainder of the season.
O'Neill, 27, showed some pop in the opening weeks of the season hitting five homers in 24 games/23 starts but he hit just .136 and drove in 11 runs.
Outfielder Matt Koperniak will get his second call up from AAA Memphis of the season.
In his first callup, he played in 4 games/2 starts and hit .300 with an RBI.
In 29 games/28 starts for the Redbirds, Koperniak, 25, has hit .288 with five homers and 25 RBIs.
