Alex Cobb Activated Ahead Of Thursday's Start
4 years agoLos Angeles Angels starting pitcher Alex Cobb (finger) was reinstated from the injured list ahead of Thursday's scheduled start against the Minnesota Twins. Cobb missed two starts due to a blister on the finger of his throwing hand, though he is set to face a Twins lineup that struck out 13 times as a team on Wednesday. The veteran righty owns an unimpressive 5.48 ERA, though he's been hit with a bloated .431 BABIP, and his 60.1 percent strand rate is well below his career average. Cobb's 30.4 percent strikeout rate is a career-high mark, powered by increased usage of his splitter. He's a sneaky DFS pitching play on Thursday.
