He played during the Pioneer League in 1994, where he threw the third-lowest ERA.

He was awarded the National League Comeback Player of the Year in 2009 following his miraculous recovery after undergoing Tommy John surgery.

On June 4, he threw his 26th career complete game, and lowered his ERA for the season to 0.71, the lowest for any Cardinals’ pitcher in the first six starts of a season, exceeding Harry Brecheen’s mark of 0.75 in 1948. In July, he was 4–0 in five starts and 36 IP with a 1.75 ERA and 1.222 WHIP. He hurled seven shutout innings while striking out ten Reds on August 12. A 7–0 victory over San Diego at Petco Park on August 22 gave him his ninth win in ten starts with a 1.92 ERA in that span. It was also the unofficial 10,000th win in the Cardinals’ all-time franchise history, dating back to the American Association era. The official total at the time, counted since their entry into the NL in 1892, was 9,219.

The Toronto Blue Jays selected Carpenter in the first round and 15th overall pick of the 1993 Major League Baseball draft. He was the first player from New Hampshire ever taken in the first round of the draft. He signed for $580,000. Standing 6 ft 6 in (1.98 m), scouts saw potential in his size, projectability, low-90s fastball, and power curveball. However, he needed to develop his control and changeup—he consistently struggled with his control early in his career. He began his professional career in 1994 in Minor League Baseball with the Medicine Hat Blue Jays of the short-season Pioneer League. In his debut against the Great Falls Dodgers, he tossed six scoreless innings of one-hit ball, fanning nine along the way. When he defeated the Lethbridge Mounties, he claimed the July 2 Pitcher of the Week award. His early success continued throughout the season as he finished with a 2.56 earned run average (ERA) with 80 strikeouts (SO), 39 bases on balls (BB) and 76 hits allowed in ​84 ⁄3 innings pitched (IP). He ended the season with a win–loss record (W–L) of 6–3 and turned in the league’s third-lowest ERA. He was also picked as the Pioneer League’s number-three prospect by league managers, behind Aaron Boone and Ray Brown.

The Blue Jays selected Carpenter in the first round of the 1993 amateur draft from Trinity High School in New Hampshire, and he made his MLB debut in 1997. However, injuries and ineffectiveness delayed his career before the Blue Jays released him in 2002. After the Cardinals signed him, he emerged as an ace in 2004, winning the Cy Young Award in 2005 and helping lead the Cardinals to World Series titles in 2006 and 2011. For much of his career, Carpenter relied on his cutter that produced a heavy bore and finished with a sharp drop, a 12-to-6 curveball, and a sinker.
