The St. Louis Cardinals will use Michael Wacha out of the bullpen for the NL Division Series.

"I was kind of expecting it," Wacha said.

"Just never made it back to where I wanted to be as a starter," he added. "I'm just happy they're going to take a little chance on me in the bullpen."

Mike Matheny said he'll go with Adam Wainwright, Lance Lynn, John Lackey and Shelby Miller the first four games against the Los Angeles Dodgers.
