As the name suggests, being placed on the 60-day DL means a minimum of two months are sat out, meaning the earliest that Adam Wainwright can return to the St. Louis Cardinals major league roster now is immediately after the All-Star break.
Under normal circumstances, the timing seems quite convenient, with the premise that he would return right after the All-Star Break, arguably the best time to reintegrate into a team’s system following a long injury stint. However, we still have no legitimate idea how long Wainwright is going to be out, or when a timeline will be planned.
