Cardinals SP Matt Clement pitched in an intrasquad game for the first time this spring Tuesday. He struggled with his control, walking four of the seven batters he faced. Clement, who had shoulder surgery 18 months ago, emerged pain free. "I feel pretty good, that's what I take away from it," Clement said. (Updated 03/25/2008).
Injury Report
Shoulder - 15-day DL. Out until at least mid-June (Updated - 5/18/08)
Fantasy Analysis
Clement hasn't been a reliable Fantasy pitcher for years, so you have to consider him nothing more than a DL flier in the deepest of leagues at this point. He will need at least a month of a rehab stint before the Cardinals would consider activating him, so late April is a best-case scenario at this point. (Updated 03/25/2008).
