Bob Carpenter on both of those games. How often does something like that happen with two different teams?

Too bad about the injury, because I'd already figured out a Rick role out of the bullpen.

Is Ankiel's comeback limited to the Cardinals or would he consider trying with someone else?
Matt


He has not signed. The Cardinals are helping him with his rehab from elbow surgery. They are doing so with the intention of providing him a minor-league contract when he's ready, and his agent has confirmed Ankiel's intent to sign with the Cardinals when he's healthy
