Mariners' Patrick Wisdom: Removed from 40-man roster

Wisdom was designated for assignment by the Mariners on Monday.

Wisdom began the season at the Mariners' alternate training site, but he'll lose his spot on the 40-man roster to make room for right-hander Brady Lail, who was claimed off waivers by Seattle on Monday. Wisdom has been effective in the minors but carries a .224/.306/.408 slash line with four home runs, 11 RBI and 34 strikeouts over 41 major-league games with the Cardinals and Rangers.
