Cueto (elbow) is expected to return from the 10-day injured list to start Wednesday's game against the Mets in New York, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Cueto will presumably throw a bullpen session Monday before the Giants sign off on him rejoining the rotation this week, but the 35-year-old right-hander looks on track to return from the IL just a few days beyond the minimum amount of time. The impending arrival of Cueto will help restore depth in the San Francisco rotation after Anthony DeSclafani (ankle) was moved to the IL on Sunday.
