Notes: That's a pretty stacked lineup Beckett will facing. Outside of Carlos Beltran, it's about the best group the Cardinals can put out there. ... Beckett went two scoreless innings in his first appearance of the spring against the Twins on Sunday. ... Doubront, a candidate for the rotation, has been sharp all spring.
