General manager John Mozeliak indicated Monday that Wainright indeed suffered a torn Achilles and will miss 9-12 months, Jenifer Langosch of MLB.com reports. Wainwright suffered the injury while batting in Saturday's game against the Brewers, and it will cost him the remainder of the 2015 season. It's another unfortunate injury for the Cardinals' ace who's missed a season in the past with a Tommy John injury. While Tyler Lyons and Tim Cooney are the two candidates to start Tuesday's game for the Cardinals, Marco Gonzales is the likely candidate to take over in the rotation once he returns from an injury of his own.
