Cardinals' Matt Carpenter: Day-to-day following MRI

Manager Mike Matheny reported Tuesday that the MRI on Carpenter's injured shoulder did not reveal any significant damage, FOX Sports Midwest reports.

Initial tests on Carpenter's shoulder provided good news, as the Cardinals' first baseman seems to simply be dealing with inflammation in his ailing shoulder. He'll see another doctor Wednesday and may soon receive a cortisone shot, but it appears that Carpenter is no worse than day-to-day.
