5 years agoSt. Louis Cardinals infielder Matt Carpenter will try and put a disappointing regular season behind him when the team travels to Atlanta to take on the Braves in the NLDS. The veteran slugger simply never could get his season off the ground, posting his lowest slugging percentage (.392) since 2014. Carpenter started off slow last season but still managed to hit 36 home runs. That number dipped to only 15 this season and totaled only 13 extra-base hits over his last 52 games. Carpenter will be a no more than a fringe fantasy option in the postseason.--Joey C - RotoBaller
