“The mid-season point makes for a lot of player movement, and one of those moves was Cahill’s advancing to the Texas League, where he allowed one run on two hits and struck out six over six innings in his first outing. The minor league strikeout leader with 109, Cahill doesn’t seem to be getting the kind of attention his statistics deserve, and that might be because he doesn’t really stand out in a crowd. He’s not massive, but at 6’3” and 195 lbs., he’s plenty big enough. He doesn’t have top-notch velocity, but his fastball is above-average in terms of both velocity and movement. It’s not a Barry Zito curve, but it’s an above-average pitch. It’s not a crazy changeup, but it has plenty of deception and fade, and while his control is not exactly Maddux-esque, he throws plenty of strikes. That’s the thing with Cahill—he has no glaring weaknesses, but pretty much everything about him is good, and that goodness could be lined up for a September look.”
