Well That’s a Shame
Chris Carpenter just can’t catch a break. Cardinals ace Chris Carpenter underwent a magnetic resonance imaging on Thursday that confirmed the 2005 NL Cy Young Award winner sustained a torn left oblique muscle during Tuesday night’s start against the Arizona Diamondbacks. Carpenter will begin rehab next week, according to general manager John Mozeliak, who described Thursday’s [...]
Enhanced Box Score: Cardinals 7, Cubs 4, April 16, 2009
I really hate the Cardinals. It’s gonna be a Cardinal-hating kind of day. But they don’t get the business in the box score today. That is reserved for Milton Bradley’s Wrigley debut.
