St. Louis Cardinals: What if this is it for Molina, Wainwright?

Easy answer, of course we aren’t prepared for this scenario. We have all known it has been coming for the last few years, but the longtime St. Louis Cardinals battery of Yadier Molina and Adam Wainwright is in its twilight and could end after 2020.

It’s a sad thought, but all good things come to an end.

In 2019, the two surged back, with Waino bouncing back with 171.2 innings (his most since 2016) and a stellar 2.56 ERA at home. Molina maintained a .270 batting average as well as his ever-present leadership behind the plate.
