Having made his MLB debut with the Cardinals in 2005, Wainwright has stayed loyal to the team to date. Entering MLB as a bright prospect, he has proven his mettle over the long many years. Wainwright is a three-time All-Star who won the World Series in 2006.?

Wainwright is still going strong at an age when most other players conclude their playing careers to be with family. He has already built a Hall Of Fame-worthy career. He simply wants to extend his legacy further. Therefore, the Cardinals administration has ensured to honor his loyalty and dedication.?

Veteran MLB ace continues to go the distance?

Adam Wainwright is among the golden trio of MLB veterans highly treasured by the Cardinals. Wainwright forms the sacred triangle of high-class performers for the Cardinals with Albert Pujols and Yadier Molina. Pujols in particular displayed some exhilarating form with the bat amid a home run frenzy this season. As a result, Pujols took his career total home run tally to a colossal 703 homers.?

Pujols was a significant reason behind the Cardinals’ qualifying beyond the regular season this year. To some measure, Wainwright played his part as well, with 11 starting wins to his credit. Nonetheless, it’s Wainwright’s news that is presently hogging the limelight. Talkin’ Baseball network shared the news on Twitter quoting, “41-year-old Adam Wainwright is not retiring.”?

A fan reacted by writing, “Is he not watching Rodgers and Brady this season?”?
