With perennial 200-plus inning horse Adam Wainwright (torn Achilles) lost for the season, Michael Wacha has emerged as the Cardinals’ rock in the rotation. Wacha, limited to 19 starts last year due to a stress fracture in his shoulder, has sprinted to a 7-0 start in 2015 and totes the seventh-best park-adjusted ERA (210 ERA+) among qualified starters after outdueling Kansas City’s Yordano Ventura on Sunday. At just 23, the former first-round pick out of Texas A&M has taken the Great Leap Forward into acedom.
