Ken Rosenthal of FOXSports.com reports that the Cardinals are not expected to pursue help outside the organization to replace Rafael Furcal (elbow). Furcal likely needs Tommy John surgery on his right elbow, but the Cards are content with Daniel Descalso replacing him at shortstop. They're also expected to call up Pete Kozma from Triple-A Memphis for depth.
