Player Notes

March 13, 2010
Matt Cain was tagged for five runs (four earned) on eight hits over 2.2 innings in Saturday's 8-7 loss to Oakland in the Cactus League. He issued no walks with three strikeouts.

Our View:Cain is coming off a solid 2009 campaign, in which he trimmed his ERA to 2.89 and WHIP to 1.18. The 25-year-old hurler's fantasy stock shouldn't drop following today's nightmarish performance.

March 9, 2010
Matt Cain allowed two hits and one run in three innings of Cactus League action against the White Sox on Tuesday.

Our View:He struck out one while walking none. Not a bad spring training appearance for one of the best number two starters in the league.

October 4, 2009
Matt Cain lasted just five innings in his final regular season start on Saturday. He allowed two runs on six hits and a walk and struck out five in the 2-0 loss to the Padres.

Our View:Cain fell to 14-8 with the loss and has now lost four of his last five decisions. He was a Cy Young candidate before he imploded in September with a 5.22 ERA.

September 27, 2009
Matt Cain was brilliant on Sunday against the Cubs, tossing eight scoreless innings in which he surrendered just three hits and two walks. He fanned eight and improved to 14-7 on the season with the 5-1 win.

Our View:Cain needed a solid start to rebound after his last outing that marked his worst effort of the season. He failed to earn a quality start in four of his previous five outings, but Sunday's effort reminded owners just how dominant he's been for the majority of the season.
