Giants' Johnny Cueto to begin rehab assignment with River Cats

Two-time All-Star scheduled to start in Sacramento tomorrow, Tuesday, August 22
By
August 21, 2017

West Sacramento, CA - San Francisco Giants pitcher and two-time All-Star Johnny Cueto is scheduled to start for the Sacramento River Cats tomorrow, Tuesday, August 22 at Raley Field. First pitch is set for 7:05 p.m. and gates open at 6:00 p.m.

Cueto is working his way back from blister issues and a mild right-flexor strain, both of which are said to have been resolved as he now focuses on rebuilding arm strength. The right-hander is expected to throw 50-60 pitches for Sacramento tomorrow at Raley Field.

Tomorrow will be Cueto's second start on the mound at Raley Field. The right-hander also started for Giants in the San Francisco Giants vs. Sacramento River Cats Exhibition Game at Raley Field before the start of the 2016 season.

Signed by the Giants before the 2016 season, Cueto is 24-12 with a 3.41 ERA since joining San Francisco. He was an All-Star in 2016 and finished sixth in Cy Young voting. His last major league start came over a month ago on July 14.

Tomorrow's Tuesday game is Toyota Family Value Tuesday, featuring $1 hot dogs and ice cream cups. Tickets for tomorrow night's game are still available and can be purchased online at rivercats.com or by visiting the Round Table Pizza Ticket Office at Raley Field.
