    Keep that hope strong sir. As a reds fan I know how exciting things are at the beginning of the year with excitemt and hope but then reality hits a month into the season.

    I was the only one around here that in spring training thought they would make the playoffs.

    People laughed at me when I said the reds would win 90 games. They won 91.

    JUPITER, Fla. -- St. Louis Cardinals pitcher Chris Carpenter has injured his left hamstring in his spring training debut but doesn't think it's a serious injury.

    Carpenter allowed one hit in 2 2/3 innings on Tuesday against the Florida Marlins before calling for a trainer. The right-hander, 16-9 with a 3.22 ERA last year, got the first two outs and walked Chris Coghlan before leaving the game.

    Carpenter said he threw one more pitch after feeling the hamstring tug. He said he wasn't that concerned about the injury.

    St. Louis pitcher Mitchell Boggs left in the fourth inning with a lower back strain after retiring one hitter. The Cardinals were already without 20-game winner Adam Wainwright, who had reconstructive elbow surgery this week.

    The news just gets better and better. I was hoping for a serious vagina rash for carpenter though

    LAKELAND, Fla. -- Joel Zumaya's comeback from right elbow surgery is on hold for a couple of days, but it isn't a major setback. The Tigers right-handed reliever is day-to-day after scar tissue broke apart around his elbow.

    Zumaya said he sustained the injury in the middle of his one inning of work Sunday against the Blue Jays. He felt the tissue snap on a two-out pitch to Jose Molina, who singled to extend the fifth inning, but the righty stayed in the game and threw his normal arsenal to retire Moises Sierra.

    "It's just a little scar tissue," Zumaya said. "They're just going to give me a couple of days."

    An MRI exam and X-rays confirmed the diagnosis. The tests were precautionary, as the scar tissue was expected to break apart at some point.

    "We checked it out medically," Tigers manager Jim Leyland said, "and there was nothing more than a little inflammation. I'm not sure when he's going to pitch, but there were absolutely no red flags whatsoever."

    Zumaya missed the final three months last season after fracturing the olecranon bone in his right elbow on a late-June pitch at Minnesota. The ensuing surgery inserted a screw around the fracture to ensure proper healing. The scar tissue that broke was around the screw.

    Still, any absence for Zumaya creates concern, which might be why Leyland hesitated briefly before mentioning the injury. The hard-throwing reliever has missed much of the past four seasons since his standout rookie campaign in 2006 established him as a young arm to watch.

    Zumaya is a free agent next winter, which makes this a big season for him. If he stays healthy for anywhere near a full season, Zumaya could help the Tigers have a big year as well, adding a potentially nasty reliever behind setup man Joaquin Benoit and closer Jose Valverde.

    This marks Zumaya's first absence of any kind this spring, and his pitching so far has been strong. On Sunday, one radar gun registered the right-hander's fastball at 97 mph, which he said he threw without full effort while mixing in several breaking balls.

    And this is why I'm not worried.
