The St. Louis Cardinals did not have a great trip around the first time through the order of starting pitchers. If you add in Wacha’s good start and Adam Wainwright’s start Monday, the starting rotation has an ERA of 6.46 averaging 4.6 IP per start. While this is nowhere near what the Cardinals expect and or need from their starters, it is still early and there is time for improvement.
That being said, specifically during Adam Wainwright’s start on Monday in Pittsburgh, many fans were tweeting and saying the Cardinals need to go out and sign free agent lefty, Dallas Keuchel.
