Alex Cobb To Continue Rehab Assignment On Saturday
5 months agoSan Francisco Giants starting pitcher Alex Cobb (hip, shoulder) will continue his rehab assignment on Saturday and start for Triple-A Sacramento. The start will be his fifth start of his rehab assignment, pointing to him coming very near his return to the Giants' rotation. Should all go well, the Giants will have to determine if the 36-year-old needs another start before being added to their active roster. The Giants will certainly be happy to welcome him back as they've dealt with their own plethora of injuries in their rotation, including Blake Snell and Robbie Ray (who also has yet to pitch for the Giants this season). Cobb has a 3.80 ERA for the Giants in his two season with San Francisco and they will need him to continue his solid production if they hope to compete for a wild card spot (currently 3.5 GB). Fantasy managers looking for starting pitching help should snag Cobb off the waiver wire and keep a close eye on his status for the next week.
