Rays pitcher Alex Cobb (forearm) threw 30 pitches in a bullpen session Monday, the Tampa Tribune reports.
Cobb opened the season on the disabled list due to forearm tendinitis. Provided he doesn't encounter a setback, he's expected to throw two more bullpen sessions before facing batters in live batting practice. Cobb has delivered back-to-back seasons with ERAs under 3.00, going 10-9 with a 2.87 ERA and 149:47 K:BB ratio in 166 1/3 innings in 2014.
