Diaz (thumb) was diagnosed with a hairline fracture and will need to spend time on the DL, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.
It's expected that the Cardinals' rookie will be on the disabled list for more than 15 days, as his thumb injury is more severe than initially expected. Greg Garcia will likely start at shortstop while Diaz recovers; however, Jedd Gyorko is also an option, as he's occasionally spent time at shortstop this season.
