Cobb and the Orioles agreed to terms on a four-year contract worth $57 million Tuesday, Jon Heyman of FanRagSports.com reports.
It was recently reported that Baltimore was the leading candidate to sign Cobb. Those plans seem to have come to fruition, as Cobb is remaining in the AL East on a four-year deal with the Orioles. He'll give their rotation a significant boost, as he's coming off a season in which he logged a 3.66 ERA and 1.22 WHIP over 29 starts (179.1 innings). While his control was sound (2.2 BB/9), Cobb's subpar 6.4 K/9 left much to be desired. Due to how late Cobb signed with a club, it's unclear if he'll be available by Opening Day.
