Carlos Martinez (right ankle) placed on 10-day IL

Cardinals starting pitcher Carlos Martinez is slated to miss at least one start after tweaking his ankle celebrating teammate Jack Flaherty's home run on Friday.
Fantasy Impact:
This means that Martinez likely pitched through injury on Saturday, explaining the drop in velocity on his fastball and lack of control on his off speed (two strikeouts, five walks). P Johan Oviedo, who was just recalled, is the likely candidate to take on Martinez's role until he returns.
