T. Cahill - SP

Trevor Cahill allowed four runs on five hits over three innings in Thursday's loss to the Padres.

The Padres got to Cahill for three runs in the first frame, with a pair of singles followed by back-to-back one-out doubles doing all the damage. He then threw a scoreless second inning before serving up a solo homer to Manny Machado in the third. In six starts this year, the 32-year-old has a passable 4.05 ERA and 1.25 WHIP, but he remains limited by a workload that has had him throw just 20 innings in those six starts. That keeps him from having fantasy relevance, a shame since he draws the Mariners his next time out on Wednesday.

T. Cahill - SP

Trevor Cahill allowed one run on two hits over 2 2/3 innings on Saturday in a no-decision against the Diamondbacks.

Cahill recorded two strikeouts and only issued one walk in his third consecutive start against the Diamondbacks. Giants manager Gabe Kapler opted to turn things over to his bullpen extremely early, pulling Cahill after just 42 pitches in the third inning. The 32-year-old righty didn’t appear to show any ill effects after exiting his previous outing in the fourth inning due to left discomfort. He owns a 2.65 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 20/11 K/BB ratio across 17 innings (five starts). Given his recent health issues and workload concerns, he’s an extremely risky streaming option for fantasy managers when he faces off against the Padres’ electrifying offense at Petco Park on Thursday.

N/A

T. Cahill - SP

Trevor Cahill has been diagnosed with joint inflammation in his left hip.

It's the reason he made an early exit from his start Saturday night against the Diamondbacks. Cahill underwent an MRI, which came back negative for any structural damage, but he might not be able to take his next turn in the Giants' starting rotation. The team does have two off days this week, so there is some flexibility.

T. Cahill - SP

Trevor Cahill was pulled from Saturday's start against the Diamondbacks in the fourth inning due to an apparent injury.

Cahill cruised through the first three innings of this one, racking up four strikeouts over three scoreless innings. He served up a two-run homer to Christian Walker in the fourth inning, then went to a 3-0 count on Eduardo Escobar before signaling for the training staff to come out. It's unclear exactly what the injury was, but it seemed like it was arm related and certainly didn't look promising. Expect the Giants to provide an update on his status after the game concludes.

Trevor Cahill exited Saturday's start against the Diamondbacks with left hip discomfort.

At this point, it's unclear how much time -- if any -- the right-hander will stand to miss, though you have to believe that next Saturday's rematch against the Diamondbacks is in jeopardy. Fantasy players who are relying on Cahill next week should be sure to have an alternative option available in the event that he requires a trip to the injured list.

T. Cahill - SP

Trevor Cahill was outstanding in a no-decision against the Diamondbacks on Sunday, allowing just one run on one hit over 5 1/3 innings of work.

The veteran right-hander racked up eight strikeouts on the afternoon while issuing two free passes. He departed in the sixth inning with a man on first base and one out -- and he ultimately came around to score as the only run charged to Cahill in the outing. He owns a sparkling 1.64 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 14/7 K/BB ratio through 11 innings on the season. He'll do battle against these same Diamondbacks his next time out in Arizona on Saturday.

T. Cahill - SP

Trevor Cahill yielded one run in four innings Tuesday in the Giants' 6-2 win over the Angels.

Cahill struck out four in his second big-league appearance this season. He was obviously the Giants' pitcher deserving of a win today after exiting with a three-run lead, but because MLB has no interesting in updating an archaic rule -- even in a makeshift season in which it knew many starters would struggle to last five innings -- Cahill was ineligible and the victory went to one of the four Giants relievers to pitch a single scoreless inning. The official scorer drew names out of a hat (or might as well have) and awarded it to Jarlin Garcia.

Trevor Cahill walked four but was able to avoid giving up a run in his 1 2/3 innings against the Astros on Wednesday.

Cahill only threw 55 pitches for strikes, but he was able to strike out two to keep the Astros off the board. The right-hander was making his debut with the Giants, and somewhat understandably, there was a lot of rust to shake off since he hadn’t pitched in a game since September 27. The Angels are next for Cahill, and it seems likely he won’t go deep in that contest, either.

Giants activated RHP Trevor Cahill from the 10-day injured list.

Cahill will slide into the Giants' starting rotation on Wednesday against the Astros after missing the first three weeks of the 2020 regular season because of an issue with a fingernail on his pitching hand. The 32-year-old right-hander has a tough debut assignment in Houston and can be left sitting on fantasy waiver wires. He struggled to a 5.98 ERA, 1.47 WHIP, and 81/39 K/BB ratio in 102 1/3 innings last summer with the Angels.

Trevor Cahill (fingernail) has been added to the Giants' taxi squad.

This is an indication that he's likely to replace the injured Jeff Samardzija (shoulder) in the Giants' rotation on Wednesday against the Astros. Cahill hit the injured list at the end of summer camp due to a fingernail issue. He doesn't come recommended in fantasy leagues.

Trevor Cahill (fingernail) is expected to throw a simulated game this week.

Cahill has been throwing bullpen sessions without issue since last week and could be cleared to return if the simulated game goes smoothly. The 32-year-old right-hander was placed on the injured list just before the start of the 2020 regular season because of an issue with a fingernail on his pitching hand.

Trevor Cahill (fingernail) threw a bullpen session on Tuesday.

Cahill landed on the injured list just before Opening Day because of a fingernail issue. The 32-year-old right-hander should be an option for the Giants sometime in early-to-mid August.

J. Quick - G

Jonathan Quick made 24 saves in Thursday’s 4-2 win over the Colorado Avalanche.

Quick allowed two goals on a total of 26 shots and finished the night with a .923 save percentage. This is the highest save percentage that he has put up so far this season. After allowing two goals in the first, Quick kept Colorado off of the scoreboard for the rest of the game and allowed his team to come back. This win marks the first win of the year for Quick, and his season record now sits at 1-0-2.

N. Noel - C

NYK

Nerlens Noel had one of his best games in a Knickerbockers jersey on Thursday, tallying six points, 11 rebounds, one assist, one steal, four swats and one turnover in 20 minutes off the bench.

The boards accounted for a season-high, and this was a nice bounce-back game for Noel following his scoreless performance on MLK Day. He got some added run tonight with Mitchell Robinson in foul trouble, but he has been heating up in the shot blocking department over the past four games with 3.5 swats a night, so he's on the radar as a potential shot-blocking specialist in deep leagues. Despite the foul trouble, Robinson still managed to finish with 18 points (8-of-11 FG, 2-of-2 FT), eight rebounds, one assist, one steal, two blocks and zero turnovers in 27 minutes.

Anze Kopitar notched two assists in Thursday’s 4-2 victory over the Colorado Avalanche.

Kopitar picked up the primary assist on a goal by Drew Doughty at the start of the second, which kicked off scoring for the Kings and cut the Colorado lead in half. With under five minutes left in the game, Kopitar picked up another primary assist, this time on the game-winning goal scored by Adrian Kempe. Kopitar now has six assists so far this season and leads the league in that category. Kopitar also now has put up two points in back-to-back games.

R. Barrett - SG

NYK

RJ Barrett dropped in a new career-high 28 points in Thursday's blowout win over the Warriors, adding two rebounds, five assists, two 3-pointers and two turnovers in 37 minutes.

Barrett was hot from the jump in this one, hitting his first four shots while going 2-of-2 from distance, and he finished the game on 10-of-17 shooting from the field and 6-of-8 from the line. He's had some really bad shooting nights, but over the past five games he's been connecting on 51.4% of his shot attempts to go with averages of 21.8 points, 6.4 rebounds, 3.6 dimes, 1.4 triples and 2.6 turnovers per game, which has him flirting with top-60 value in 9-cat leagues.

Kevin Knox hit 1-of-4 shots for one 3-pointer, one rebound and nothing else in 11 minutes off the bench on Thursday.

Alec Burks (ankle) is back, so it's going to be tough for Knox to find consistent minutes in the rotation moving forward. This was his fourth straight single-digit scoring performance, and when he's not scoring, he's really not doing anything for you in fantasy hoops. Leave him on the wire.

Hunter Miska allows three goals in Thursday’s 4-2 loss to the Los Angeles Kings.

Miska made a total of 23 saves on 26 shots and finished the night with a .885 save percentage. This game also marked Miska’s first NHL career start. After not allowing any goals in the first period, Miska gave up two in the second and one in the third that sealed the loss for Colorado. This is only the second game the 25-year-old has played in, and the first as a member of the Avalanche organization.

I. Quickley - PG

NYK

Immanuel Quickley saw just 11 minutes off the bench in Thursday's easy win over the Warriors, and he finished with five points (1-of-5 FG, 2-of-2 FT), three rebounds, one assist, one 3-pointer and one turnover.

Quickley saw just 15 minutes off the bench in the previous game, but with Alec Burks (ankle) making his return tonight, the rug was ripped out from under Quickley as he was just the 10th man in the rotation. This is how it tends to go for rookies playing under Tom Thibodeau, so he's going to be an incredibly frustrating guy to roster this season if he's not able to earn any minutes alongside Elfrid Payton. Payton finished with 15 points (5-of-11 FG, 4-of-6 FT), two rebounds, five assists, one 3-pointer, one steal and three turnovers in 38 minutes, and there's not much incentive for Thibs to switch things up with New York currently sitting on a winning record.

NYK

Alec Burks (left ankle) scored 11 points off the bench in his return from a 12-game absence on Thursday, adding five rebounds, one 3-pointer, one assist, one block and one turnover in 31 minutes off the bench.

Burks looked a little rusty in his first game back, going 2-of-7 from the field, but he did a nice job of drawing fouls on his drives and finished 6-of-8 from the charity stripe. It was also impressive to see him log so many minutes after the lengthy absence, but that tends to be Tom Thibodeau's MO. If you need a cheap source of scoring and triples, Burks is worth a look.
