Alex Cobb Set To Return On Friday Against Mets
10 months agoSan Francisco Giants starting pitcher Alex Cobb (oblique) is poised to return from the 15-day injured list to start Friday's game against the New York Mets. The 35-year-old appears to have only needed the minimum stint on the mend with a left oblique strain after being placed on the IL retroactive to June 15. Cobb struggled versus the Mets in 2022, yielding nine earned runs over 10 1/3 innings pitched in two starts against New York last year. The right-hander's lifetime 5.87 ERA vs. the Mets (23 IP) marks his worst figure against any National League club. Despite the potentially dicey matchup, fantasy managers should gladly welcome back Cobb's solid 3.09 ERA with 76 strikeouts across 78 2/3 innings overall this year.
