Looks like Marquis is being taken down and Dan Herrin is pitching after being called up from Memphis.
This is what i am seeing in the local St Louis papers..
The Cardinals have recalled righthanded pitcher Dan Haren from their Triple-A Memphis club and he is expected to start today's 1:20 p.m. game against the Cubs at Wrigley Field.
Jason Marquis had been scheduled to start the game but he is bothered by a sore back.
To make room on the roster for Haren, the Cardinals optioned outfielder So Taguchi to Memphis.
Haren, 23, made his major-league debut with the Cardinals last June 30 and started 14 games for the Cardinals in 2003, going 3-7 with a 5.08 earned-run average. He made one start at Wrigley Field, allowwing six hits and two runs over five innings.
In 12 starts this season for Memphis, Haren was 7-2 with a 3.58 ERA. He had a league-high 90 strikeouts in 78 innings.
Taguchi played for Memphis during the 2002 and '03 seasons. He started Wednesday's game in center field for the Cardinals and was batting .258 in 44 games with one homer and five RBIs
