Walt Jocketty, a three-time baseball executive of the year and former general manager for both the St. Louis Cardinals and the Cincinnati Reds, has died. He was 74.

Jocketty died Friday in the Phoenix area, former Cardinals manager Tony La Russa told the team after speaking with Jocketty’s wife Sue.

The Cardinals announced the death Saturday. Jocketty had been battling health issues for the several years.

The Cardinals won the National League Central Division seven times under Jocketty’s leadership. St. Louis also won National League championships in 2004 and 2006 and their 10th World Series title in 2006. The 2006 championship, with a team that won 83 games in the regular season, ended a 24-year drought.

Mariners place Gilbert on IL with sore elbow

Seattle All-Star right-hander Logan Gilbert was placed on the 15-day injured list with a right elbow flexor strain a day after he left an 8-4 loss to Miami after three innings and 29 pitches.

Gilbert, 27, is 1-1 with a 2.37 ERA in six starts, striking out 44 and walking six in 30 1/3 innings.

Gilbert was sixth in AL Cy Young Award voting last year, when he went 9-12 with a 3.23 ERA. He has made at least 32 starts each of the past three seasons, and is 42-31 with a 3.55 ERA in five major league seasons.

Cubs, White Sox work a crosstown trade

The Chicago White Sox acquired infielder Gage Workman in a trade with the Chicago Cubs.

The White Sox sent cash to the Cubs for Workman, who was designated for assignment on Wednesday.

Infielder Nick Maton was designated for assignment by the South Siders to make room on their roster.

Workman, 25, was a Rule 5 draft pick from Detroit in December.

Under the major league portion of the Rule 5 draft, the players must stay on the big league roster all of next season or clear waivers and be offered back to their original organization for $50,000.

Workman appeared in nine games with the NL Central-leading Cubs, going 3 for 14 with two RBIs.

Brewers place Mitchell on IL, recall Cameron

The Milwaukee Brewers placed center fielder Garrett Mitchell on the 10-day injured list.

After an MRI, Mitchell was diagnosed with a left oblique strain.

After Friday’s game, Mitchell said he hurt it on one of his swings in his lone at-bat in the second inning.

The Brewers have selected the contract of left fielder Daz Cameron from Triple-A Nashville.

Cameron, 28, was acquired by the Brewers from Baltimore on April 7. Cameron was hitting .372 with five homers, 16 RBI, nine runs scored and three steals with Nashville.

He’s the son of former major leaguer Mike Cameron, who played for Milwaukee from 2008-09.
