Lincecum loses 1st start after break: Giants SP Tim Lincecum struck out eight during Sunday's 7-4 loss to the Brewers in his first start since missing last Tuesday's All-Star Game and being hospitalized in New York with the flu and dehydration. His 121 pitches were the second most of his career behind the 122 he threw on April 24 against the San Diego Padres. Lincecum allowed five runs and six hits in six-plus innings. He was run in the seventh after allowing a three-run homer to Ryan J. Braun. He also allowed a homer to Corey Hart while walking four. (Updated 07/20/2008).

Fantasy Analysis
Lincecum is now 11-3 on the season with two of his losses coming in his last three starts. He hasn't looked much like an All-Star as of late, having allowing four of more runs in four of his last seven starts. Let's hope this is Lincecum's last rough patch of the season and he starts to pitch well very shortly. His next scheduled start is for Saturday against the Diamondbacks. Lincecum is 1-0 with a 3.68 ERA this season against Arizona. (Updated 07/20/2008).
