Cardinals & Adam Wainwright Agree To 2020 Contract

The St. Louis Cardinals announced today that they have agreed to terms with free-agent pitcher Adam Wainwright on a one-year contract for the 2020 season. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
St. Louis Official Site

What Adam Wainwright felt pitching in October this year was a feeling that he wasn’t ready to walk away from.
St. Louis Official Site

The preference, even as he hit free agency for the first time in his career and could field offers from other interested teams, was always to return for one more year, that last encore before the curtain, with the Cardinals.

One of the things Adam Wainwright promised to give the young starters and wanted from them in return was honesty, and so here was Jack Flaherty, all of two years in the rotation, approaching Wainwright in the dugout this past August about to test that boundary.

Adam Wainwright Becomes Fifth Cardinal To 150 Wins

There were a pair of laundry carts ready for Adam Wainwright and batterymate Yadier Molina as the Cardinals filed into the clubhouse after Wednesday’s 5-2 victory over the Brewers. That’s because there was more than a series sweep to celebrate.

After allowing three hits, including a home run, to the first four Milwaukee batters he faced Wednesday and then walking a hitter in the next inning, Cardinals righthander Adam Wainwright did something very un-Christian like.

Besides the St. Louis Cardinals completing the sweep of the Milwaukee Brewers with a 5-2 win this afternoon, the victory also marked the 150th of starting pitcher Adam Wainwright’s career.

Cardinals & Adam Wainwright Agree To 2019 Contract

The St. Louis Cardinals announced today that they have agreed to terms with veteran pitcher Adam Wainwright on a one-year contract for the 2019 season. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
St. Louis Official Site

Adam Wainwright's tenure as a St. Louis Cardinal will extend into a 15th season after he and the club reached an agreement on a one-year contract for 2019.
St. Louis Official Site

When Adam Wainwright stood at spring training and considered the end of his contract, he said, repeatedly, that his plan was to force the team to want him back. His season took a more scenic route than planned – winding through rehab assignments and recovery, from Springfield, Mo., to Memphis, to a playoff race in September – but the destination was the same.

Adam Wainwright will return to the Cardinals in 2019, agreeing to a one-year contract with the team.

As this past season wound down and Adam Wainwright made his final home start, he was asked the unavoidable question if he had thrown his last pitch wearing a St. Louis Cardinals uniform. Admitting that it could be possible, Wainwright very quickly stated he didn’t feel like that was the case, instead keeping the focus on the team’s playoff hopes and a chance to pitch again in the post season.

After Adam Wainwright made his last appearance of the season at Busch Stadium on Sept. 22, he said it didn’t feel like the last game he would pitch there while wearing a Cardinals' uniform.

Adam Wainwright Eyes Bounce-Back Performance

Veteran pitcher Adam Wainwright hopes to erase any memories of his last outing in the Cardinals' series finale against the Phillies on Sunday. The right-hander will instead look to invoke his performances from a personal four-game winning streak and continue what has overall been a stellar season for St. Louis' starting rotation.
