He'll spell Holliday against the occasional hard-throwing righty (high heat can still tie Matt up pretty good). He'll get Berkman a breather at 1st on a fair occasion as well (especially if Robinson can continue to play center and tread water offensively; Berkman has a pretty pronounced split against lefties as well).
They'll find Craig the ABs. Carpenter, OTOH, may not get as many as I'd like.

This team is better equipped to deal with injuries than most. Who knows if Carpenter and Robinson can keep up their hot streaks but having a deep bench is a nice problem to have.
