Wainwright could be two weeks away: Cardinals SP Adam Wainwright threw his first bullpen session since going on the DL on June 8 with a ruptured tendon in the middle finger of his pitching hand Tuesday. Wainwright, who threw 40 pitches at 70-75 percent effort, is scheduled for at least two more bullpen sessions on Thursday and Saturday, and could be back in the rotation in two weeks or so. "It's a big step for me, really testing it on the mound," Wainwright said. "It's pretty exciting, actually." (Updated 07/22/2008).
Injury Report
Finger - 15-day DL. Out until at least early August (Updated - 7/8/08)
Fantasy Analysis
Wainwright won't return until early August at the earliest at this point. Consider him a DL stashee in any league with reserves, because come August, he could be a big-time winner in all Fantasy leagues again. (Updated 07/22/2008).
