Lynn being stretched out as possible Carpenter replacement
The latest news on Chris Carpenter's (RHP, STL) sore neck is that he's feeling better but he's not yet ready to begin throwing. In the meantime, Lance Lynn (RHP, STL) is being stretched out as a possible rotation replacement in the event that Carpenter is not ready to begin the season. In 2011 Lynn was outstanding in the Cardinals' bullpen, posting a 3.12 ERA, 10.4 Dom, 3.6 Cmd, and 145 BPV in 35 IP.
While these numbers are certainly encouraging, Lynn's work as a starter in the minors gives us less cause for excitement.
