Carpenter to undergo Tommy John surgery (AP)



Losing Chris Carpenter for 161 games is bad enough. Knowing your ace will miss a considerable chunk of 2008 is far worse. The St. Louis right-hander, the 2005 NL Cy Young winner, will undergo elbow ligament replacement surgery next week. The procedure, commonly known as Tommy John surgery, means that Carpenter can't anchor a pitching staff that helped the Cardinals win the 2006 World Series.
