St. Louis, MO (My Sportsbook) - St. Louis Cardinals catcher Mike Matheny underwent successful arthroscopic surgery Monday on his right shoulder. The procedure to clean out debris from the shoulder was performed by team physician Dr. George Paletta. The team expects Matheny to be ready for the beginning of spring training. He was the fourth Cardinal to have surgery this offseason, following J.D. Drew, Ivan Cruz and Jason Isringhausen. In 110 games this past season, Matheny batted .244 with three homers and 35 RBI.
