Cobb and the Kid
35-year old Alex Cobb is enjoying the finest seasons of his career in a San Francisco Giants uniform. He threw another great game last night (7-1/3 scoreless frames) and leads the team in bWAR (2.4). He’s allowed only ten runs in his eight starts (47-2/3 IP). Backing him up was rookie sensation Casey Schmitt who went 4-for-4 with 3 RBI and is now 8-for-12 with two homers and two doubles matching Willie McCovey’s great start in 1959. How’s that for a debut? Schmitt, a natural third baseman, has played shortstop with BCraw sidelined and looks like he can handle any spot on the infield. He made a throw last night (92.7 mph) that is second only to O’Neil Cruz who uncorked one earlier in the year at 92.8 mph. The Giants surely need a spark and a homegrown youngster is the ideal candidate. Schmitt was taken in the 2020 draft, Farhan Zaidi’s second season at the helm. Last night we saw Cole Waites in relief, he was a 2019 pick. The only other player from that 2019 group to make the majors is Caleb Killian who was part of the Kris Bryant trade.
It’s a bullpen game tonight (6:40 PT). John Brebbia will be the opener.
Go Giants!
