Chris Carpenter (RHP, STL) registered a PQS-3 in his 2012 debut Friday, allowing five hits and two ER with 2K/1 BB in five innings. He had been plagued since spring training by nerve issues in his neck and shoulder which eventually required mid-season thoracic outlet syndrome surgery.

Frank Francisco and Carlos Quentin are bit again by the injury bug, while Travis Hafner, Corey Hart and Neil Walker have all returned, but at less than 100% for the season's final two weeks.

Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw (LHP, LA) has had an exceptional 2012. However, he will miss his September 16th start against STL, and may possibly need season-ending surgery to repair a torn labrum. Also, BAL deals with another key injury, TEX receives good news with the return of Mike Napoli (C, TEX) and more ...

Lance Lynn's (RHP, STL) six-inning PQS-5 September 13 win has secured him at least one additional start. Banished to the bullpen following a second-half fade, Lynn made an emergency start replacing injured Jake Westbrook (RHP, STL). Latest reports have Westbrook likely sidelined until at the season's final week, meaning he is likely to miss at least two more starts. Lynn could finish the season in the rotation if he continues to impress.
