He'll give up his spot on the 28-man active roster to left-hander Cooper Hjerpe, who is expected to pitch behind starter Kyle Leahy in Sunday's game against the Rockies. After getting his first big-league call-up Sept. 1, Rincon appeared in two games out of the St. Louis bullpen and surrendered seven earned runs on five hits and one walk over 1.1 innings.

The Cardinals selected Rincon's contract from Triple-A Memphis on Tuesday.

Rincon has collected a 4.04 ERA and 88:31 K:BB over 71.1 innings this season at Memphis. The 24-year-old can provide some length in the Cardinals' bullpen and will be making his major-league debut when he enters a game.

The Cardinals will call up Rincon from Triple-A Memphis when rosters expand Tuesday, his agency, Sports Agents International, announced Monday.
