Jul 2 RHP Matt Cain gave up one run and six hits in seven innings Wednesday at Busch Stadium, and he is expected to return to St. Louis in two weeks as an All-Star. He has pitched at least seven innings in four consecutive starts and is 9-2 with a 2.48 ERA. With a bit more run support, he would have double-digit wins. Yahoo! Sports


Jun 26 Cain allowed five runs on six hits in seven innings against the Brewers Friday.

Recommendation: He struck out nine but walked four, bringing his season ratio to 85:41. He also gave up his 11th home run of the season, a surprisingly high total considering his 2.57 ERA and 1.23 WHIP.
