Daniel Descalso is batting just .167/.236/.258 through his first 72 plate appearances this season.
Matt Carpenter has been a standout this year at second base, which has limited Descalso's ability to get regular playing time. He carries zero fantasy relevance.
May 9 - 10:46 AM
Daniel Descalso went 4-for-7 with a double, a pair of RBI and two runs scored in Wednesday's 10-9, 16-inning marathon loss in Arizona.
Descalso could only watch Cliff Pennington's game-winning single scorch past him in the bottom of the 16th, but he certainly did more than his share to keep the game going as long as it did. In his third consecutive start, Descalso shrugged off a pair of off-nights (1-for-7 to begin the season) to lead St. Louis' offense. As long as David Freese (back) is out, he's worth starting in NL-only leagues. Expect him to improve on last year's .227/.303/.324 slash line.
Apr 4 - 3:21 AM
Daniel Descalso went 2-for-3 with a double and two runs scored against the Nationals on Wednesday.
Descalso played third base today, but it sounds like he'll shift back to second, with Matt Carpenter at third, while David Freese (back) sits out the first week or two of the season. Descalso figures to slide into a utility role afterwards.
Mar 27 - 3:50 PM
Daniel Descalso went 2-for-2 with a walk and two RBI against the Astros on Friday.
While we'd prefer to see Matt Carpenter win the job, Descalso is the favorite to start at second base for the Cardinals. He won't offer a lot of offense, though he should improve on last year's .227/.303/.324 line.

Jake Westbrook (elbow) isn't expected to return from the disabled list when he's first eligible.
Westbrook was hoping to throw Friday, but he required another injection after an MRI revealed scar tissue around his right elbow. The Cardinals originally estimated that he would only miss two starts, but rookie John Gast figures to stick around for a little while longer.

Chris Carpenter
D.L.
Rick Hummel of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports Chris Carpenter is conditioning himself to be a starter.
When it was initially revealed that Carpenter was going to attempt a comeback this season, the general assumption was that he would be aiming to join the St. Louis bullpen. But the veteran right-hander is stretching himself out in case a spot opens up in the Cardinals' starting rotation. The remarkable story continues.
