Cardinals To Re-Sign Adam Wainwright

Veteran starting pitcher Adam Wainwright will return to the St Louis Cardinals in 2023, according to Derrick Goold of the St Louis Post-Dispatch.
Wainwright, 41, pitched to a 3.71 ERA across 191 2/3 innings for the Cardinals this season, his 17th with the Redbirds. With his long-time battery mate Yadier Molina retiring at the end of the 2022 campaign, as well as Cardinals legend Albert Pujols, there had been plenty of speculation that Wainwright would call it quits, too. Instead, he’ll return for an 18th season.
He’ll now have a chance to pick up the five pitching wins required for him to reach the 200-win milestone, while overtaking Jesse Haines’ 210 wins for second on the Cardinals’ pitching wins leaderboard is a possibility.
More to come.
