9/03/24 San Francisco Giants Did Not Take Full Advantage of MLB Trade Deadline. The San Francisco Giants took an odd approach to the 2024 MLB trade deadline that has come back to bite them. It seemed like one of their goals was to save some money and clear salary cap space. Alex Cobb, who had yet to start a game this season, was traded to the Cleveland Guardians. Then, ahead of the buzzer, the Giants acquired veteran Mark Canha from the Detroit Tigers, using the money they saved by moving Soler.

9/02/24 Cadre of ex-catchers kept an eye on Alex Cobb's perfecto bid: Guardians takeaways. With no fewer than four ex-professional catchers on the Guardians coaching staff, it should come as no surprise that when Alex Cobb began to flirt with history on Sunday, there were plenty of voices with experience in the dugout. Cobb, bidding for Cleveland's first perfect game since Len Barker's masterpiece in 1981, retired 18 batters in a row Sunday before giving up a single to Pittsburgh's Isiah Kiner-Falefa in the seventh.

8/26/24 Cleveland Guardians, San Francisco Giants Finalize Alex Cobb Trade. On July 30, the Cleveland Guardians acquired starting pitcher Alex Cobb from the San Francisco Giants to add a veteran arm to their sinking starting rotation. The trade between the two organizations initially included Cobb going to the Guardians in exchange for RHP Jacob Bresnahan and a player to be named later. This deal is now complete, with the team announcing the PTBNL in this deal is Cleveland prospect Nate Furman. Furman, 23, was Cleveland's fourth overall selection in the 2022 draft and started the season with the Lake County Captains (High-A).

8/25/24 Robbie Ray leaves SF Giants' game vs. Mariners with hamstring injury. When the Giants traded away Alex Cobb and Farhan Zaidi declared their starting rotation the best in baseball, they were betting the five-man group as assembled could carry them the eight weeks from the trade deadline to the last day of the regular season and, they hoped, into October. It was a risky wager, with a pair of rookies and another coming off major surgery, and the chances of it paying off took another blow Sunday afternoon when Robbie Ray winced and grabbed at his left hamstring on his 62nd pitch of their series finale against the Seattle Mariners. Ray was removed from the game after a brief consultation on the mound with manager Bob Melvin and trainer Dave Groeschner, and the Giants later said he was diagnosed with left hamstring tightness. The 32-year-old left-hander should undergo tests in the coming days that determine the severity of the injury and what kind of loss the Giants can expect in their rotation.

8/22/24 Recently Traded San Francisco Giants Starter Placed on Injured List. There were a lot of unknowns surrounding what the San Francisco Giants were going to do ahead of this past trade deadline. With an outside chance of getting into the playoffs, there were some people out there who thought they should go ahead and start selling off the majority of their pieces to get back star prospects that could kickstart a rebuild. Starting pitcher Alex Cobb was one who was in the first category. The Giants decided to ship him to the Cleveland Guardians just one year removed from him being named an All-Star in exchange for minor leaguer Jacob Bresnahan.

8/05/24 Why Guardians will regret making Alex Cobb trade. The Cleveland Guardians have been one of the best teams in baseball this season but desperately needed to improve their starting rotation at the MLB trade deadline. The Guardians addressed their need for starting pitching by bringing in veteran Alex Cobb. Unfortunately, the team could end up regretting that decision. The Guardians lost ace Shane Bieber to Tommy John surgery in April and outside of Tanner Bibee and Ben Lively, the rotation has yielded uninspired results.
