First of all, put down the sharp objects and step back for a moment, and be honest with yourself. Adam Wainwright will be turning 36 in August, and that is an advanced age for any athlete. (Maybe not Vince Carter) Not every pitcher can be Nolan Ryan throwing bullets for 27 seasons. The average pitcher has a career that lasts between 5 and 7 years. What makes you think Adam Wainwright is any different from a normal aging pitcher? There have been a lot of pitchers make the move from the rotation to the pen and extend their career. Perhaps Wainwright could be valuable to the Cards in a role like Andrew Miller had for the Indians last year.
