Louis Arena another chance to ask for autographs from the 19-year-old

The St. Louis Cardinals placed Jhonny Peralta on the 15-day disabled list Tuesday with a strained ligament in his left thumb, marking the second time this year that the veteran infielder has been sidelined by a thumb injury.Peralta is the latest Cardinals infielder to be placed on the DL, joining All-Star third baseman Matt Carpenter (oblique) and first baseman Brandon Moss (ankle).Despite the injuries to those three impact players, the Cardinals are not interested in trading for a hitter unless they can acquire a long-term impact player, a source told ESPNs Mark Saxon.Peralta, 34, said he jammed his thumb while swinging the bat last weekend. Cardinals general manager John Mozeliak acknowledged that he thinks this latest injury is related to the torn thumb ligament that Peralta suffered in spring training.Its a different spot, but to say its completely unrelated, I dont think anyone can tell you that, Mozeliak said.Peralta missed the first nine weeks of the season after undergoing thumb surgery in March. He has played in 30 games since his June 7 return to the Cardinals, batting .221 with five home runs and 13 RBIs.Moss, the Cardinals leading home run hitter, is out of his walking boot and expected to begin a minor league rehabilitation assignment early next week, Mozeliak said. Carpenters return is at least three weeks away.The Cardinals announced Peraltas injury amid a series of roster moves before Tuesdays game against the San Diego Padres. St. Louis recalled outfielder Jeremy Hazelbaker and right-hander Miguel Socolovich from Triple-A Memphis and also designated catcher Michael McKenry for assignment.Jedd Gyorko will start at third base Tuesday for the Cardinals.ESPNs Mark Saxon contributed to this report.

Chris Wallers first trip to Perth six years ago dented his confidence that he could plunder a West Australian Group One race.But any doubt is now a distant memory as the champion trainer prepares to chase three successive years of elite level victories at Ascot with Good Project and Mackintosh in Saturdays Railway Stakes.Wallers first foray west was in 2010 with Triple Honour, the first of his now 65 Group One winners.Triple Honour beat one runner home in the Railway before finishing sixth in the Group One Kingston Town Classic and fourth in the Group Two C B Cox Stakes.It didnt give me a lot of confidence, Waller said.While it took four years for Waller to return, Moriarty proved to the triainer he could successfully pull off a Perth heist with an unlucky third in the Railway and victory in the Kingston Town.When you get success it makes it easier to go back, Waller said.Thats why you see Golden Slippers, Melbourne Cups targeted by the same trainers every year because they have confidence in doing it.Going to Perth is no different.He believes defendding Railway winner Good Project is again the right horse to take west this year.ddddddddddddood Project ran seventh in the Group One Cantala Stakes (1600m) at Flemington on October 29, with the horse blocked for clear running on the home turn.Hes where he needs to be and Group One form where he was unlucky is as good as form youll get going to Perth, Waller said.Mackintosh was fifth in the Cantala.Waller conceded Mackintosh was soft in the last 100m but attributed that to the horse being posted three wide during the race.The winner Le Romain came off his back through having cover, Waller said.I think if he had Le Romains run, he would have been closer to the finish.Stablemate Vanbrugh is likely to join Mackintosh in the Kingston Town (1800m) on December 3, with their trainer certain of only one crucial aspect of a successful western raid.Ive worked out youve got to take a pretty good horse to be able to win, Waller said.
