Cahill signed a minor-league with the Giants that includes an invitation to big-league camp Tuesday, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Cahill joined the Angels on a one-year, $9 million deal for last season, but he didn't find much success with a 5.98 ERA, 1.47 WHIP and 81:39 K:BB in 37 appearances (11 starts). the veteran right-hander provides some potential starting depth and could also work in long relief with a strong showing in spring training.

Cahill (3-9) allowed a run on two hits and one walk while striking out a pair over two innings to take the loss against the Red Sox on Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Cahill entered the contest in the 14th inning, and Mookie Betts took him deep for a solo shot in the 15th. Across 12.1 innings in August, Cahill owns an 8.03 ERA and 1.86 WHIP, having maintained a scoreless line only twice in seven appearances. For the year, he's posted a 6.41 ERA and 1.48 WHIP with 71 strikeouts over 91.1 innings.

Cahill pitched 1.1 innings, allowing a hit and walk in Friday's 7-2 loss to the White Sox.

EDGE Analysis

Cahill entered the game with the Angels trailing 7-2 and managed to prevent the damage from getting any worse. He's struggled with that in August, having allowed 12 runs (nine earned) over four appearances spanning eight innings this month. The right-hander has a 5.22 ERA in 29.1 innings since transitioning to the bullpen in late June.

Cahill (3-6) scooped up the win in Tuesday's 9-4 triumph over the Rangers after allowing one run in two innings of relief. He scattered one hit and one walk in the 33-pitch outing and didn't record a strikeout.

EDGE Analysis

After starter Jose Suarez ran up his pitch count to 91 through four innings, Cahill was summoned in long relief and was able to limit the damage while the Angels provided him ample run support. The win was Cahill's first since May 10, when he was still a full-time member of the rotation. The Angels will have the uncomfortable task of filling Tyler Skaggs' spot in the rotation Saturday in Houston, and Cahill should find himself among the organization's short list of options. JC Ramirez (elbow) is another candidate to enter the starting ranks if the Angels elect to bring him back from the 60-day injured list this weekend.

Cahill (elbow) was activated from the 10-day injured list Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

According to Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register, Cahill will initially pitch out of the bullpen, with Jaime Barria starting Wednesday's game against the Reds. Prior to landing on the shelf earlier in June, Cahill struggled to a 7.18 ERA, 1.40 WHIP and 46:20 K:BB in 57.2 innings.

Cahill (elbow) will be activated off the 10-day injured list Wednesday, but it's unclear whether he'll be used as a starter or reliever, Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Angels have yet to name a starter for Wednesday and manager Brad Ausmus didn't specify how Cahill will be utilized upon his activation. The 31-year-old has a 7.18 ERA, 1.40 WHIP and 46:20 K:BB over 11 starts this season but the team has recently discussed moving him to the bullpen. Regardless, Cahill isn't a desirable option for fantasy purposes.

The Angels have discussed transitioning Cahill (elbow) to a relief role once he's reinstated from the 10-day injured list, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

EDGE Analysis

The right-hander has been sidelined since June 3 with elbow inflammation, but looks to be on the cusp of a return after kicking off a minor-league rehab assignment Friday with Triple-A Salt Lake. He was lit up for seven runs in just 2.1 innings in that contest, which was reminiscent of many of his ill-fated appearances as a starter in the big leagues this season. Over 12 outings (11 starts) with the Angels prior to getting shut down with elbow inflammation, Cahill submitted a 7.18 ERA and 1.40 WHIP in 57.2 innings. He'll likely make at least one more appearance in the minors before the Angels decide on how to deploy him once he's back from the 10-day injured list.

Cahill (elbow) will make a rehab start Friday with Triple-A Salt Lake, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

EDGE Analysis

Cahill is already eligible to return from a sore right elbow, though he'll make at least one rehab appearance before joining the Angels despite his brief absence. He's scheduled to throw around 75 pitches, and it sounds like he could be activated after just one rehab appearance if everything goes off without a hitch. The team may not be too excited for him to return due to his poor 7.18 ERA through 57.2 innings.

Cahill (elbow) tossed another bullpen session Tuesday but isn't on track to rejoin the Angels' rotation for this weekend's three-game series in St. Louis, Maria Torres of the Los Angeles Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Angels list Griffin Canning, Felix Pena and Tyler Skaggs as their probable starters for the weekend, so if the team does elect to bring Cahill back from the 10-day injured list in the next few days, he'll be relegated to a bullpen role. Cahill has reported no renewed discomfort since landing on the IL with right elbow inflammation June 9, so the Angels may be deliberately taking things slowly with a veteran pitcher whose rotation spot was on thin ice prior to getting shut down. Rookie Jose Suarez has been filling as the Angels' fifth starter and has thus far outperformed Cahill, who owns a 7.16 ERA and 1.40 WHIP over 57.2 innings this season.

Cahill (elbow) threw off flat ground Friday, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Cahill landed on the 10-day injured list June 8 due to right elbow soreness, but it's good to see that he's throwing without issue. The Angels are optimistic that Cahill will only miss one start, which would put him in line to return Thursday against the Blue Jays.
