Johnny Cueto (groin) cleared to start for Giants this Thursday
San Francisco Giants pitcher Johnny Cueto (groin) has been cleared to start Thursday at home against the Colorado Rockies.
What It Means:
Cueto endured a mild groin strain during a road start against the Los Angeles Dodgers on September 20. He was given the go-ahead to pitch Thursday by Giants manager Bruce Bochy after making it through a bullpen session Tuesday without any setbacks. With San Francisco in pursuit of a Wild Card spot, Cueto will be in a big spot Thursday night.
It has been another solid year for Cueto, with a 2.79 ERA and 3.65 SIERA through 31 starts (212 2/3 innings). His 22.0 percent strikeout rate and 5.2 percent walk rate are both better than his career averages.
