News: Carpenter said that he's been able to focus on strength this winter instead of rehab and that his shoulder feels stronger than ever, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports.

Analysis: "My goals was to get as strong as I can so that I can make it through the season healthy," Carpenter said. After missing most of the previous two seasons, Carpenter logged 192.2 innings in 2009 and turned in a sparkling 17-4 record along with a 144:38 K:BB ratio and just seven home runs allowed for the Cards in 2009. He should remain one of the elite fantasy starters in the National League as long as he can stay healthy.

News: Manager Tony La Russa could pitch Carpenter on short rest in a potential Game 4 on Sunday, MLB.com reports.

Analysis: The Cardinals' initial plan was to use John Smoltz or Kyle Lohse as the Game 4 starter, but St. Louis' 0-2 deficit in the ALDS may have changed La Russa's mindset. Of course, all of this will be a moot point if the Cards can't find a way to win on Saturday.
