Giants' Jeff Samardzija to face Phillies; update on Johnny Cueto
On Friday night, Cueto, who’s returning from the Tommy John surgery he had last year, threw two scoreless inning in his second rehab outing in the rookie-level Arizona League.
Cueto’s progress has Bochy enthused.
“He came out of it well. He threw the ball very well,” Bochy said. “For him to be where he’s at, with his velocity at 92 (mph), that’s pretty impressive. That’s only going to climb as he builds strength.”
Bochy said Cueto’s next appearance is scheduled to come with Class A San Jose in Visalia either Wednesday or Thursday. He’s expected to throw approximately 40 pitches. Bochy expects Cueto will be with the big club in September.
