Trevor Cahill (SP, OAK) - Week 11 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues

OWNED IN: 35% of leagues

ANALYSIS: Oakland Athletics starting pitcher Trevor Cahill appears to be back to his old tricks. In 2017, before getting shelled after a trade to the Royals, he had a 3.69 ERA and 72 strikeouts in 61 innings for the Padres. Since moving to the Athletics this season, Cahill has a 2.77 ERA and 47 strikeouts in 48 2/3 innings pitched.

He has allowed just 37 hits and has reinvented himself as a strikeout pitcher over the last few seasons. Even including his dismal time period with Kansas City  (where he had an 8.22 ERA in 23 innings pitched), Cahill has struck out 8.9 batters per nine in 211 innings pitched since 2015. While this includes playing for five different teams (and a strong stint as a reliever with the Cubs), Cahill has shown that he is able to strike batters out and he did allow just 49 hits in 65 2/3 innings with the Cubs in 2016.

He will start on June 9 against the aforementioned Royals (which should be a great matchup), before facing the Angels on June 15. While he is only 1-2 this season (and has not won since his first start of the season on April 17), Cahill's combination of strikeouts and groundballs (60.2% GB rate this season) makes him the top waiver wire pickup of the week.
