Spiezio was placed on the 15-day disabled list, backdated to Saturday, because of an infection in his left index finger. He'll be replaced on the roster by infielder Brendan Ryan, who only Friday was sent back to Memphis when shortstop David Eckstein was activated. The Cardinals travel to Florida and Atlanta today, but Spiezio left the team and is on his way back to St. Louis.

Eckstein was activated from the disabled list, and rookie infielder Brendan Ryan was optioned to Triple-A Memphis. Eckstein missed 23 games from June 14-July 13 because of leg and back injuries.

The Cardinals can still hold out hope that he'll develop into a utilityman, but he's not the player the team thought it was getting when it make him a 2004 first-round pick.
