The Sports Xchange reports that RHP Chris Carpenter, on the mend from shoulder surgery of last year, threw 60 or so pitches Tuesday in a bullpen session. "He continues to improve, and that's a great sign," manager Tony La Russa said. "He's got a lot to do but there's definitely enough time." Carpenter isn't expected back until mid-July. (Updated 04/17/2008).
Injury Report
Elbow - 15-day DL. Out until at least late July (Updated - 3/25/08)
Fantasy Analysis
Carpenter is still a few months away from a return to the majors, so continue to consider him a DL stashee at this point and a potential sleeper for the season's final weeks, but be sure to monitor his comeback closely. (Updated 04/17/2008).
