Chris Carpenter Undergoes Elbow Surgery

Cardinals ace Chris Carpenter underwent elbow surgery on Tuesday, receiving the same ulnar nerve transposition procedure that slugger Albert Pujols had last month. George Paletta, the Cardinals' head team physician, performed the operation, just as he did on Pujols in October.
