Fantasy Impact

This was quite the bounce-back effort following Wainwright's disastrous start last week. Wainwright is not quite the ace he used to be and these ups and downs are to be expected but he can still be serviceable in the right matchups. The no-decision brough Wainwright's ERA down to 5.25 on the season.

Adam Wainwright only lasted 1 2/3 innings Saturday to pick up his fifth loss of the season. Wainwright allowed nine runs on seven hits with a walk and a strike out.

Fantasy Impact

This is by far Wainwrights worst outing of the season. Wainwright isn't consistent enough to be owned and should be avoided.

Adam Wainwright allowed two runs over five innings against the Phillies on Sunday. He gave up six hits and walked two while striking out four. The Cardinals earned the victory, moving Wainwright's record to 7-4.

Fantasy Impact

Wainwright bounced back nicely after the "Scooter Gennett game," but still offers little value in fantasy. Fantasy owners would be wise to avoid Wainwright in his next start, in the hitter-friendly Camden Yards against the Orioles next weekend.

Adam Wainwright lasted just 3 2/3 innings in a losing effort against the Reds on Tuesday, giving up nine runs on seven hits and three walks. This disastrous start ballooned his ERA to 4.86, while his WHIP sits at 1.56.

Fantasy Impact

Wainwright had been rolling, with four straight consecutive quality starts in which he gave up just one run over 26 1/3 innings, but Tuesday's implosion undid any momentum he had going for him. He has a favorable matchup next time out against the Phillies, but she should be started with caution after Tuesday's performance.

Adam Wainwright pitched six innings giving up four hits, two hits while striking out six. Wainwright also hit a home run and drove in the games two runs.

Fantasy Impact

Wainwright is on a roll and could be of some use if you're in the need of pitching. He's posting a 6-3 record with a 3.79 ERA.
