Adam Wainwright Stats

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Adam Wainwright was solid in his National League Wild Card Game start against the Los Angeles Dodgers. He threw 5 1/3 innings, allowing just one run on four hits and two walks while striking out five. He seemed to get stronger as the night went along, and was allowed to hit with runners on base only to be lifted the very next inning after a swinging bunt single by Trea Turner. It was the first of several atrocious managerial decisions by Mike Schildt in a winner-take-all game. The 40-year-old Wainwright will be back for at least one more season in 2022, and showed that he had plenty left in the tank this season.

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Adam Wainwright earned the victory while going six innings during a 6-2 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers on Tuesday. The 40-year-old limited the damage, allowing seven hits, two walks, and two earned runs while striking out four during the quality start. The three-time All-Star has had a stellar season, posting 17 wins, 3.05 ERA, 1.06 WHIP, and 174 strikeouts across 206 1/3 innings pitched. While Wainwright plans to be back with the Cardinals for the 2022 season, he should be treated as a solid back-of-the-rotation option in redraft leagues as opposed to the workhorse version in 2021.
