FILE - In this Sept. 22, 2018, file photo, St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Adam Wainwright walks off the field after being removed in the seventh inning of a baseball game against the San Francisco Giants in St. Louis. Wainwright’s contract with the Cardinals has been put on hold because it violates the maximum-cut rule, and the pitcher will have to become a free agent before the agreement can be finalized, people familiar with the deal told The Associated Press, Thursday, Oct. 18, 2018. St. Louis announced the agreement with the 37-year-old right-hander on Oct. 11. He was earning $19.5 million annually, and the new deal guarantees less than $15.6 million.
