View More NewsMatt Carpenter: Club option declined by Cardinals
The Cardinals have declined veteran infielder Matt Carpenter's club option, which was worth $18.5 million. Instead, he'll receive a $2 million buyout.
Fantasy Impact
Carpenter, 35, has spent the entirety of his 11-year career with the Cardinals. He struggled this past season, slashing .169/.305/.275 while posting career-worsts in fWAR (-0.3), wRC+ (70), and strikeout rate (30.9 percent). There's a chance that the Cardinals bring him back on a cheap deal, but he's now open to explore opportunities with all 30 teams.
