DeJong was recalled from Triple-A Memphis on Sunday, Jim Hayes of Fox Sports Midwest reports.
DeJong will get the call in the wake of infielder Kolten Wong's placement on the disabled list due to an elbow strain. Though Greg Garcia will draw the start Sunday against the Rockies, DeJong is a candidate to see reps at the keystone for the duration of Wong's absence. Over 170 at-bats at Memphis this year, DeJong owns a .873 OPS with a team-high 11 home runs. He's seen reps at second, third and shortstop this season, so the 23-year-old's versatility could come in handy if any other St. Louis regulars need a day off.
