Wainwright (7-6) was tagged with the loss Friday against San Francisco as a result of allowing four runs on five hits and one walk over six innings. He struck out seven.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran kept the Giants off the board for three innings before Mike Yastrzemski tagged him for a solo homer in the fourth frame. Things didn't get any better for Wainwright from there -- a three-run homer by LaMonte Wade Jr. in the fifth essentially sealed his fate on a night when the Cardinals' offense was mostly quiet. The loss snapped a streak of six straight outings in which Wainwright avoided taking an L. He'll look to get back into the win column next week when he faces the Cubs at home.

Wainwright's start against the Cubs was postponed Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran's first half is over. He pitched 105.2 innings across 17 starts and posted a 3.58 ERA and a 1.15 WHIP. With John Flaherty injured, Wainwright has been the undisputed ace of an injury-plagued rotation and figures to start the Cardinals' first game after the break next Friday.

Wainwright (7-5) tossed five innings against San Francisco on Tuesday, allowing three runs on seven hits and four walks while striking out three en route to the win.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran struggled with his control through much of the contest, throwing 61 of 97 pitches for strikes and finishing with a season-high four walks. However, Wainwright navigated through five innings and departed with a 4-3 lead. He has picked up a win in three of his past four outings to push his record to 7-5, which is particularly impressive since he didn't get his first victory of the season until his sixth start. Wainwright hasn't given up more than three earned runs in any of his past seven starts and has posted a 2.74 ERA and 1.07 WHIP over that stretch. He's tentatively slated to start St. Louis' final game before the All-Star break, which will take place Sunday on the road against the Cubs.

Wainwright pitched eight innings in a 5-2 loss to Colorado on Thursday, allowing two runs on six hits and a walk with four strikeouts. He didn't factor into the decision.

EDGE Analysis

Wainwright was excellent once again, surrendering both earned runs on a Brendan Rodger's home run, but it wasn't enough to bring home the victory. The veteran has been enjoying a mid-season renaissance as he's now thrown six straight quality starts, going a total of 41 innings with a 2.41 ERA and more strikeouts than baserunners allowed in the stretch.

EDGE Analysis

Wainwright has pitched at least six innings in five straight appearances and has gone 3-1 with a 2.45 ERA during that five-game span. The veteran hurler has also fanned at least six in each of his last four appearances while allowing two or fewer runs in each of those contests. It's safe to say that four-game span has been his most productive stretch of the campaign. The veteran hurler is expected to make his next start on the road against the Rockies next week.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran hurler recorded his third straight quality start and has given up two or fewer runs in three of his last five outings. The 39-year-old right-hander has struggled with consistency a bit this season, but he's delivered far more strong performances rather than poor ones. He owns a 3.95 ERA on the season and is scheduled to pitch again during the upcoming weekend series on the road against Atlanta.
