Player Notes

July 1, 2009
Matt Cain was solid as usual on Wednesday night, going seven innings and allowing just one run, but the Giants again scored only one run for him, and the Cy Young candidate was forced to take a no decision in the Giants 2-1, ten inning loss.

Our View:Expect to see Cain in two weeks at the All-Star game in St. Louis and as a candidate for many year end awards.

June 26, 2009
Matt Cain struggled in tonight's 5-1 loss at Milwaukee, as he was tagged for five earned runs on six hits over seven innings. He issued four walks and fired nine strikeouts.

Our View:Cain was only dealt his second loss of the season, and was not a total disappointment tonight with nine strikeouts. He continues to lead the Giants with nine wins and carries a solid 2.57 ERA, and he should bounce back fine.

June 20, 2009
Matt Cain continued his excellent 2009 season on Saturday, but he did not factor into the decision as the Giants beat the Rangers 2-1 in 11 innings. Cain went eight innings and allowed one run on three hits while walking three and striking out eight.

Our View:Cain has really come into his own this season, and he should be viewed as a top pitching option in all fantasy leagues. He strikes guys out and wins games, which is exactly what fantasy pitchers are supposed to do.

June 14, 2009
Matt Cain was stellar on Sunday in the Giants' 7-1 win over the A's. Cain pitched a complete game and allowed one run on four hits while striking out nine.

Our View:Cain was masterful today, and this is what people have expected Cain to do all season. He is having a very good 2009 campaign, and he remains a strong play in all leagues.

June 10, 2009
Matt Cain gave up four earned runs on six hits over 6.1 innings in Tuesday's 9-4 win at Arizona. He had five walks with six strikeouts.

Our View:It was a sloppy outing for Cain, but he ended up claiming his eighth win of the season due to strong run support from his teammates. He has won five straight starts, and only suffered one loss all season.
