All our minor league teams are off to poor starts. San Jose is doing aLmost OK, but they were supposed to be some sort if juggernaut.
I haven't looked to see for certain, but it seems that, in the past few years, most of the affiliates get off to strong starts and fade. This start, as a system, seems unusual.

A little more on Cain:
In his last three seasons (2014-2016), he has made a total of 29 starts. Of those starts, he has gone 7 innings only 6 times. The last one was June 28, 2014. The last time he went 8 innings was June 29, 2013. He last 6 innings only 4 times last year, three of which he allowed 2 or fewer runs.

He is one of my favorites. I really hope he comes around but each start I lose a little more hope.

I think the Giants must have hired Aubrey Huff as an assistant hitting coach this year. The huffers have come at an alarming rate.
