Manager Joe Maddon said the Angels are optimistic Cobb (finger) will make his next turn through the rotation, J.P. Hoornstra of the Los Angeles Daily News reports.
The veteran right-hander exited Friday's start with a blister on his index finger, but he played catch Tuesday and still has a chance of making his next turn through the rotation, which lines up for Thursday versus the A's. Cobb has been pitching well through four starts in July with a 1.09 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 21:9 K:BB across 24.2 innings.
