Carpenter waits on Pujols — and his own age

Waiting in the wings for the St. Louis Cardinals after the team makes a decision on whether or not to resign Albert Pujols? One-time Cardinal ace and still 1A starter Chris Carpenter.

Carpenter's contract also runs out after this year, albeit with a $15M club option for 2012 that ain't getting picked up, not at that price. Carpenter discusses his situation here.

Two years at $20-22M total? Third club option year at $8-9M? That sounds about right to me.
