Adam Wainwright hit a historical milestone in Monday's 1-0 win over the Brewers, earning his 200th career win. The 42-year-old turned back the clock, pitching seven innings while allowing four hits and two walks with three strikeouts. Wainwright's season has not reflected his stellar career and he will retire at the end of this season, so this achievement has been a true highlight. He is now the fifth active MLB pitcher in the 200-win club. Wainwright has spent all 18 seasons with the Cardinals and spent the majority of his career as a dominant fantasy starter.

Adam Wainwright will have his next start on Sunday pushed back until Thursday. The 42-year-old pitched well during his last outing, but indicated afterwards he wasn't feeling good on the mound. The Cardinals will give the veteran pitcher some more rest, so
Zack Thompson will start on Sunday. Thompson was decent during his last start, but isn't a reliable streaming option. Fantasy managers desperate for pitching help could look at Thompson as a possible option against the Pittsburgh Pirates on Sunday.

Adam Wainwright will be in search of much-improved results on Thursday night when he takes the ball at home against the New York Mets. The 41-year-old was absolutely tattooed over his last two starts, allowing 15 earned runs on 18 hits across just four innings pitched in that time. The back-to-back disasters elevated his ERA to an unsightly 8.78 mark across 15 starts on the season while Cardinals president of baseball operations John Mozeliak has said Wainwright's role will be re-evaluated following Thursday's outing. The veteran will take on a Mets offense that sits 14th with a .318 wOBA versus right-handed pitching this season.

Adam Wainwright (shoulder) is scheduled to start on Monday against the Arizona Diamondbacks, per manager Oli Marmol. The 41-year-old veteran has been on the IL since July 5 with a right shoulder strain but he's ready to go for Monday's tilt. Wainwright had a tough go before sustaining his injury, working a 7.66 ERA and 1.99 WHIP over 51 2/3 innings (11 starts). It's nice to see him back in the Cards' rotation but he is not a recommended streaming option for Monday.
