In two starts:
7 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 3 BB, 2 SO

Looking good so far, even after only 2 starts...No hits so far, pretty impressive. Wainwright rules.

I love it! I hope he starts off the season like this.

I am still concerned. He gave up way too many flyballs than groundballs.

He has more BBs than Ks. It is obviously a mirage.

Yea, but it's still early. I'm not worried yet.

I've never questioned his ability to get 7-12 outs, its getting 21 or so every time out that worries me.

I think the concern of Wainwright as a starter was never really warranted.

Disagree...here is the concern:

He hasn't proven he can get 18+ Major League Outs yet.

Wow, I realize how big the pitches were, but Wainwright's really getting the major press this Spring.

Dare I say I haven't seen this kind of buzz over a young Cardinals' pitcher since....? uhhh, no.

No, we don't talk about "that guy."
