Schoeneweis on DL because of depression
PHOENIX(AP) -- Scott Schoeneweis has been placed on the 15-day
disabled list by the Arizona Diamondbacks because of depression,
less than three months after his wife was found dead at their
home.

The 35-year-old left-hander spent three weeks on the bereavement
list after his wife, Gabrielle, was found dead on May 20 in the
master bedroom of couple's home in the Phoenix area.

Since returning on June 9, Schoenewies has given up 15 earned
runs in nine innings. He is 1-2 with an 8.24 ERA in 38 games
this season.

A cause of death has not been made public, and an attorney for
Schoeneweis said the family has filed suit to keep the records
sealed.

Arizona recalled left-hander Daniel Schlereth from Double-A
Mobile to take Schoeneweis's place on the roster.
