Adam Wainwright lasts just two innings, allows seven runs to Cubs

Adam Wainwright got rocked by the Cubs on Friday afternoon, allowing seven runs over two innings. Wainwright gave up six hits and three walks, while striking out two. The two-inning outing matches the shortest start of Wainwright's career.

Fantasy Impact:

Fantasy owners were certainly nervous about this matchup, but the results were even worse than expected. Wainwright has now given up at least six runs in each of his last two outings, and his ERA has ballooned up to 4.72. At this point, unless you're desperate for innings, it makes sense to put Wainwright on the bench and see him throw a good outing before inserting him back into your starting lineup.
