Andrew McCutchen goes hitless on Tuesday

Andrew McCutchen and the Giants offense as a whole struggled Tuesday against Gerrit Cole and the Astros. McCutchen went 0-for-4 with two strikeouts.
Fantasy Impact:
The veteran outfielder may just be pressing a bit too much still as a new member of the Giants. Most of his advanced metrics are in line with what you'd expect, and while his K% is high (22.2), he's walking 13.4% of the time and is actually swinging at pitches outside the zone at a career-low clip of 17.2%. Unfortunatey, he's also not making much contact on those pitches. It's still too early to give up on McCutchen, but he's far from his former MVP self.
