Cardinals' Adam Wainwright (back) to return Sunday

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Adam Wainwright (back) will come off the DL and start Sunday against the Cincinnati Reds.

What It Means:

Wainwright has been out since July 22 with a back injury but after completing a successful bullpen session on Wednesday, the veteran pitcher is ready to return to action on Sunday.

Wainwright is projected for a 4.68 ERA, 1.43 WHIP, and 33 strikeouts in 46 1/3 innings pitched the rest of the season, by our models.
