Adam Wainwright Looking To Shake Off Back-To-Back Disasters Thursday
1 year agoSt. Louis Cardinals pitcher 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.
