After a watching its team ERA balloon from a National-League best 2.94 in 2015 to 4.08 last season, St. Louis knows its starting rotation must improve this year if they hope to catch the Chicago Cubs. The Cardinals believe they have the arms to do that, thanks to the return of a healthy Lance Lynn, a rejuvenated Michael Wacha and a full season from promising rookie Alex Reyes.

Carlos Martinez has two hopes for this season, one for himself and one for the Cardinals. How Martinez fares at his first goal is likely to impact the second, as is the progress of the rest of St. Louis' revamped pitching staff - one that saw its team ERA balloon from a National League-best 2.94 in 2015 to 4.08 last season. The Cardinals should enter this season with an abundance of starting pitchers, with Lance Lynn and Michael Wacha returning from injuries to join stalwarts like Martinez, Adam Wainwright and Mike Leake.
