Tampa Bay Rays: Cobb Set to Return Next Weekend

The long awaited journey back to the Tampa Bay Rays rotation is in clear sight following Tommy John surgery and months of rehabilitation for right-hander Alex Cobb.

Cobb has made seven rehab starts since returning from a brief setback that was unrelated to the surgery but to fatigue and mechanics.

He is scheduled to make one more start for Triple-A Durham on Saturday, which is the 30th and final day of his rehab assignment.

With that happening, the Tampa Bay Rays could activate him on Sept. 2 or 3 per Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times and he could then be in line to pitch over the weekend against the Boston Red Sox.
