ST. LOUIS -- Cardinals third baseman Jhonny Peralta is going back on the 15-day disabled list because of a strained ligament in his surgically repaired left thumb.The 34-year-old Peralta is batting .221 with five homers and 13 RBI. He missed the first 57 games of the season before returning June 7.St. Louis made the move Tuesday.Peralta hasnt played since getting removed in a double switch on Sunday while being bothered by pain in his thumb. Theres been inflammation the last few weeks from getting jammed at the plate.It just didnt look good, we saw that early on, manager Mike Matheny said. The swing through just didnt feel right.The three-time All-Star underwent surgery in March for an injury in a different spot on the thumb from landing awkwardly on the thumb, but general manager John Mozeliak said there was no doubt the two injuries are related.The team is hopeful Peralta will resume baseball activities in 10 days but wasnt sure whether he would be ready to go at the end of the 15 days.I think we were trying to be patient with this, Mozeliak said. I think the best thing for him right now is some rest.Peralta averaged 19 homers and 73 RBI the previous two seasons. He moved to third base due to the emergence of rookie All-Star shortstop Aledmys Diaz.Greg Garcia started at third base on Monday and Jedd Gyorko was at that spot on Tuesday.Outfielder Jeremy Hazelbaker was recalled from Triple-A Memphis to replace Peralta. St. Louis also recalled right-handed reliever Miguel Socolovich and designated catcher Mike McKenry for assignment.Socolovich was called up because of the potential workload in the bullpen with 17 games in a row.Hazelbaker was on the opening day roster and has made 44 starts, batting .250 with seven homers and 19 RBI. Hes among the top pinch hitters in the majors with three homers, a .368 average and six RBI.Socolovich is 2-5 with a 2.79 ERA in 35 games at Memphis.Peralta, in the third year of a four-year, $53 million deal, joins fellow starters Brandon Moss and Matt Carpenter on the DL. Mozeliak said Moss (ankle) could begin a rehab assignment early next week. Larry Doby Indians Jersey .

The nimble-footed quarterback got his wish, dashing through the snow and a weary defence all the way into the NCAA record book. Combustible and combative, Antonio Conte and Diego Costa seem tailor-made for each other to lead Chelsea back to glory after a disastrous title defence last season.Looking to build on their season-opening victory, the Blues seek three more points at Vicarage Road, where Watford could be further bolstered by some reinforcements signed during the transfer window.The former Juventus and Italian national team manager cut a frenetic figure in the coaches box for his Chelsea debut. Conte cheered, chastised and cajoled as the Blues showed more passion in their opening 90 minutes than they did for much of the last campaign in their 2-1 victory Monday night over West Ham United.Costas goal in the 89th minute provided the three points and touched off a wild celebration in which Conte -- in his customary black suit -- sprinted down the sideline to join the party and hugged supporters. In many respects, both Costa and Chelsea were fortunate -- the forward probably should have received a second yellow card for a late reckless challenge on Hammers goalkeeper Adrian before the goal.And that came after Costa became the highest-profile player of the opening matchday to receive a caution under the stricter new rules regarding dissent to the officials. This figures to be an on-going concern given his sometimes petulant mannerisms.Still, the big takeaway heading to Watford is Chelsea are playing Contes style. He has deemed Eden Hazard pivotal to any success this season, and the Belgium international had plenty of influence in addition to his conversion from the penalty spot early in the second half. The ball is going to find him, and Conte is OK with aggressive errors in trying to find the midfielder in space.Newcomer NGolo Kante made a seamless transition into the midfield, where he partnered with Nemanja Matic in front of the back four. And all three substitutes had an impact, with debutant Michy Batshuayi providing the assist on Costas winner.Im delighted with the performance because I saw a lot of good things, Conte told Chelseas official website. There was great intensity and possession. Every manager when they arrive at a new club tries to bring their philosophy and we have been working with the players for only one month, but I am pleased.Even with Costa finding the mark, Conte has not ruled out adding players before the transfer window closes. Cesc Fabregas did not play, and rumours persist Chellsea could make a play for Everton striker Romelu Lukaku.ddddddddddddThere are two weeks and well pay attention, he said, if we find the right solution thats fine. The market is very crazy, the club know my ideas and its important to find the right solution to improve this team, not buy for the sake of it.While Conte is intimately familiar with Juventus, one of their players who arrived in Turin after he left to take over Italy could be in Watfords lineup Saturday. Midfielder Roberto Pereyra is reportedly close to signing with Watford in a deal that could be worth as much as ￡13 million. The Argentina international was loaned to Juve in 2014 from Udinese, who are owned by Giampaolo Pozzo -- the father of Watford owner Gino Pozzo.The prospects of having Pereyra in the hole behind forwards Troy Deeney and Odion Ighalo has to be an enticing one for new Hornets manager Walter Mazzarri, who saw his team open the season with a hard-fought 1-1 draw at Southampton last Saturday.Etienne Capoue scored early for Watford, lashing a right-footed volley from 10 yards following a well-placed header by Deeney. The Hornets, though, played the final quarter-hour with 10 men after substitute Ben Watston was given a direct red card for a challenge on Shane Long as the last man defending.The Hornets also appeared to have made a successful transition to the 3-5-2 preferred by Mazzarri after utilising a 4-4-2 under predecessor Quique Sanchez Flores.There are different types of formation, but what is important is that the players follow my style of play, Mazzarri said through a translator post-match. We have been practising with two different types of play. We played with one formation and it went well.Ighalo had a quiet season debut with no shots shortly after signing a new five-year deal with the team. He scored 17 goals in 42 matches last season and has 37 in 81 contests since arriving from Udinese for the 2014-15 season.The teams split points in both matches last season, playing out a scoreless draw at Vicarage Road in February after a 2-2 stalemate at Stamford Bridge on Boxing Day. Watford are winless in their last five (0-2-3) top-flight matches versus Chelsea and last eight overall (0-2-6) after a victory in the first Premier League match between the teams Sept. 18, 1999.
