Cardinals left-hander Brian Tallet has been diagnosed with kidney disease. Had Tallet not sneezed so violently that he strained a rib cage muscle on the left side he might not have discovered the issue. To determine the severity of the strained intercostal muscle, Tallet had a CT scan taken last week of his rib cage, and while doctors peered at the results they saw past the ribs and found cysts clinging to Tallet's kidneys. Tallet said he was diagnosed with polycystic kidney disease and that has interrupted his rehab while on the disabled list. "It's something that I had no idea that I had," Tallet explained. "Some cases are worse than others. Right now, my case is that all of my levels are normal and everything is fine with them, but I've got cysts in the kidneys. Now, it's just a matter of maintaining the levels that I'm at by drinking more water and not taking anti-inflammatory (medicine)."
