After being removed from his start on Thursday, Adam Wainwright appeared to be blinking back tears. A heart-to-heart with his manager in the dugout helped. More, via katiejwoo:
career. The Cardinals are 33-47 and have spent 65 of 92 days this season in last place in the National League Central. After starting the season on the injured list, Wainwright has made 10 starts. His ERA has ballooned to 7.45, his WHIP to 1.94 and he’s logged just 25 strikeouts over 48 1/3 innings. A cornerstone of the rotation, Wainwright has hindered the pitching staff more than he’s helped it this year. His poor performance has only been magnified by the Cardinals’ abysmal season.
For several years prior, Wainwright would be the one to spot a frustrated teammate and offer a pick-me-up, or sit down for a heart-to-heart. On Thursday, Marmol knew the roles needed to be reversed. Though Marmol declined to publicly state the specifics of the conversation, Wainwright was a bit more candid.
“There are a lot of different emotions that I’m feeling right now, but I’m trying to not hinder the rest of the team with it,” Wainwright said. “Nobody needs a Debbie Downer, nobody needs a negative force walking around. So, I still try to stay positive, encourage guys and be a good teammate. Through my struggle, I can’t bring everyone else with me.”
