Lars Nootbaar Injury: Shelved with rib sprain

St. Louis placed Nootbaar on the 10-day injured list Sunday due to a left costochondral sprain.

Nootbaar will be sidelined through at least July 23 after he was removed from Saturday's 7-6 loss to Atlanta due to side discomfort. The outfielder had also been lifted from a game two days earlier due to the same issue, so the Cardinals opted to give him some extra time off. St. Louis activated Ivan Herrera (hamstring) from the IL in a corresponding move.
