McCutchen went 5-for-5 with a home run, double and two RBI in the Giants' 9-3 loss to the Diamondbacks on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
McCutchen provided a jolt for San Francisco out of the leadoff spot, but with his hit total nearly matching the output (six) from the rest of his teammates combined, the Giants weren't able to take advantage of his constant presence on the bases. The 31-year-old is now slashing .278/.375/.500 with three home runs, six RBI and five runs in 14 games since the All-Star break.

McCutchen (foot) will man right field and bat atop the order in San Diego on Monday, Alex Pavlovic of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.
EDGE Analysis
McCutchen will not miss any additional time after leaving Sunday's game against Milwaukee due to a foot contusion. With just a two-game set on tap in San Diego, he will get a breather during the club's scheduled off day Wednesday. Through 103 games this year, McCutchen has slashed .253/.348/.405 with 10 home runs, 43 RBI and nine stolen bases.

McCutchen was lifted from Sunday's tilt against Milwaukee due to a foot contusion, Andrew Baggarly of The Athletic Bay Area reports.
EDGE Analysis
McCutchen suffered the injury after fouling multiple balls off his foot, although he was likely removed as a precaution. The issue shouldn't force him to remain out long, and he'll be considered day-to-day moving forward.

McCutchen is leading off Saturday against the Brewers, Kerry Crowley of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Rookie Steven Duggar had been leading off for the Giants, but now McCutchen will get his shot against righty Jhoulys Chacin. McCutchen has a career .277/.357/.469 slash line as a leadoff hitter, but a lot of that production came when he was in his prime. He is hitting .255/.348/.408 with 10 home runs and nine steals in 440 plate appearances this season. If this lineup construction holds, McCutchen should see his runs tick up and his RBI tick down.

McCutchen went 1-for-5 with a solo home run in Sunday's extra-inning loss to the Athletics.
EDGE Analysis
McCutchen's eight-inning homer put the Giants on top momentarily, but it was all for naught as the bullpen failed to hold the lead. The 31-year-old's numbers are down across the board since joining San Francisco this offseason, but he has salvaged some fantasy value with a .259 batting average, 51 runs, 10 homers, 42 RBI and nine steals in 97 games.

McCutchen went 3-for-6 with an RBI in Sunday's 13-8 win over the Cardinals.
EDGE Analysis
McCutchen got off to a rough 1-for-15 start in July, but he has delivered five hits, two RBI and a stolen base over his last three contests. The 31-year-old is slashing a respectable .262/.345/.422 through 88 games, with just enough power (nine homers) and speed (seven steals) to maintain mixed-league value.

McCutchen is not in the lineup versus Colorado on Tuesday, Kerry Crowley of the Bay Area News Group reports.
EDGE Analysis
McCutchen will get a rare day off following 11 straight starts as Hunter Pence gets the nod in right field. Over the past two games, McCutchen has gone 0-for-10 and will look to clear his head before returning to the starting nine for Wednesday's series finale.

McCutchen went 2-for-4 with a walk, a double, an RBI and a run scored in Thursday's loss to the Rockies.
EDGE Analysis
McCutchen has turned things on in the month of June, slashing .300/.342/.540 with five homers, 16 RBI, 17 runs and a pair of steals over 108 plate appearances. The 31-year-old should continue to provide modest contributions across the five main offensive fantasy categories while batting in the heart of the Giants' order.

McCutchen went 1-for-4 with a stolen base and a run scored in Friday's 6-2 loss to the Padres.
EDGE Analysis
McCutchen was able to successfully nab his sixth stolen base of the season after getting thrown out on his previous two steal attempts. The 31-year-old has been heating up with the warm summer air, slashing .301/.326/.566 with five homers, 14 RBI and two steals over 21 games in June.
