The St. Louis Cardinals had a busy day down in the minors on Monday. The biggest story of the day around the organization certainly was the club's loss at the big league level against the Milwaukee Brewers. St. Louis sent Matthew Liberatore to the mound to face off against Brewers ace Jacob Misiorowski. Liberatore was very good. He pitched five innings and allowed three runs while striking out a career-high 10 batters.

The tall Brewers hurler pitched seven innings against the Cardinals and allowed just one earned run and two base hits while striking out 12 batters. St. Louis ended up losing, 5-1. With the loss, the Cardinals' record on the season dropped to 29-23 with the club's fourth loss in the last five games. St. Louis wasn't just busy in the majors, though. The club announced a handful of minor league moves, including the release of right-handed pitchers Sam Brodersen and Aaron Holiday. "SS Jeremy Rivas has been transferred from Springfield (AA) to Memphis (AAA)," the Cardinals announced. "INF Miguel Villarroel has been transferred from Memphis to Springfield. RHP Jason Savacool has been transferred from Memphis to Peoria (A+). RHP Ian Bedell (AAA) has been placed on the 7-day IL. C Paulo Asprilla has been transferred from Palm Beach (A) to the FCL.
