Alex Cobb Knocked Around Again
7 years agoMaybe Baltimore Orioles starter Alex Cobb should have stayed in the minors a bit longer. He's not looking like a major league pitcher after his signing at the end of spring training. He gave up seven runs in 3 1/3 innings, but only five were earned. Still, that's a putrid line. He did strike out four, but that's like putting out one small spark while a wildfire rages behind you. Cobb only walked one, so control wasn't an issue. The Tigers were just walloping him to the tune of 10 hits. Should manager Buck Showalter not run out of patience, Cobb will likely start against his former team next, the Tampa Bay Rays.
