5 years agoBoston Red Sox starting pitcher Andrew Cashner gave up seven runs over 5 2/3 innings in Thursday's loss to Tampa Bay. The righty scattered seven hits, while walking five and striking out just one. Cashner has been a failed experiment so far, since being acquired on July 13. He's allowed 19 runs in 23 1/3 innings as a member of the Red Sox, and now the team is in a rough situation for the fifth spot in the rotation. His next time out against the Kansas City Royals on Tuesday is favorable, but it's hard to believe in Cashner after the start to his time in Boston. It's safe to stay away from the 32-year-old for fantasy, and he'll need to spin a gem to gain any sort of confidence in owners.--Steve Janik - RotoBaller
