Righthander Lance Lynn, the de facto ace of the Cardinals’ staff now that Adam Wainwright has been lost for the season after Achilles tendon surgery, has won just one of his first six starts this season.

That victory total is two shy of long reliever Carlos Villanueva and one less than reliever Miguel Socolovich, who has been here less than a week.
