Wainwright (4-5) allowed four earned runs on eight hits and no walks while striking out 10 across six innings to take the loss Tuesday against the Phillies.
EDGE Analysis
Wainwright coughed up a three-run lead, allowing a two-run double to Bryce Harper in the third inning and a two-run homer to Cesar Hernandez in the fourth frame. On the other hand, he showed good control of his pitches, beginning 14 of the 25 hitters he faced with a strike and pacing 64 of his 92 total pitches in the zone. Wainwright also racked up an impressive 10 strikeouts -- his highest single-game total since May 25, 2014 -- on the strength of 23 called strikes. He now owns a 4.94 ERA and 1.41 WHIP with 51 strikeouts across 58.1 innings. He'll look to improve on those numbers in his next start, currently scheduled for Sunday against the Cubs.

Wainwright (4-4) gave up three runs on six hits and four walks while striking out two, taking the win over the Royals on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Wainwright didn't exactly dominate, but he worked his way in and out of trouble to pick up his fourth win. The walks continue to be a problem as he has allowed a 3.96 BB/9, and he will have to be more efficient to pitch deeper into games. The right-hander has a 4-4 record with a 4.82 ERA and 41:23 K:BB through 10 starts this season. Wainwright will make his next start Wednesday against the Phillies.

Wainwright (3-4) took the loss against the Braves on Thursday, giving up five earned runs on five hits over four innings, striking out two and walking five as the Cardinals fell 10-2.
EDGE Analysis
Coming off a solid start against the Pirates, Wainwright couldn't keep it rolling in this contest, as struggled with his command while allowing 10 baserunners. He's had an erratic start to the season overall, as the veteran right-hander is now sporting a 4.75 ERA and a 1.35 WHIP over 47.1 innings.

EDGE Analysis
The veteran righty bounced back from his worst start of the season to deliver his longest. Wainwright now has five quality starts in eight trips to the mound, and he'll take a 4.15 ERA and 37:14 K:BB through 43.1 innings into his next outing Thursday in Atlanta.

Wainwright (3-3) allowed five runs on five hits and two walks across five innings Sunday, taking the loss against the Cubs. He struck out two batters and gave up a home run.
EDGE Analysis
Wainwright allowed just one run on a Willson Contreras solo homer through four innings before things unraveled. He gave up two more runs in the fifth before getting tagged with three straight hits to start the sixth inning, ending his rough evening. He threw just 47 of 76 pitches for strikes and watched his ERA rise to 4.46. He'll take the mound Friday at home against the Pirates.

Wainwright looked to be in trouble early as he gave up a solo home run and back-to-back singles during the first inning, but he initiated an inning-ending double play and never looked back. The veteran right-hander has a 3.96 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and 22:10 K:BB over 25 innings and figures to take the mound again next week at Washington.

Wainwright (1-1) took the loss against the Reds in Mexico as he allowed two runs on three hits across six innings. He struck out four and walked two.
EDGE Analysis
Wainwright carried a no hitter into the sixth inning but served up a pair of solo home runs to end his afternoon after six-plus frames. The Cardinals' offense went 1-for-12 with runners in scoring position, saddling the veteran right-hander with his first loss of the season. Wainwright next figures to take the mound Friday against the Mets.

Wainwright (1-0) gave up one run on five hits with no walks while striking out nine through six innings in a win over the Padres on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
It was a nice start for Wainwright as he struck out nine batters through six innings. The curveball was especially effective in this performance, accounting for eight of his 14 swinging-strikes. The right-hander has a 4.50 ERA and a 12:4 strikeout-to-walk ratio through two starts. Wainwright will look to build on this outing Saturday against the Reds at Great American Ballpark.
