Cook did not appear for the A's on Sunday night after pitching three straight days. Cook was given support by manager Bob Melvin on the A's team site "We'll continue to monitor that. We'll take all the variables into consideration like we do with anything. You have to support younger guys going through difficult times, [but] there are times that hypothetically you feel like you need to give somebody a break from a role."

2013

Subscribe now to see our 2013 outlook.

2012

An impressive start to the season at Double-A Mobile vaulted Cook into the D-Backs bullpen, but his results upon promotion left plenty to be desired and he was eventually sent down to Triple-A Reno. Assuming that he's able to iron out the late-season control issues, Cook should be able to compete for an Opening Day roster spot in spring training and serve as one of the first relievers called up in 2012 if he fails to secure a job in March. Cook racked up 19 saves during his time in the minors in 2011, but he's unlikely to ascend higher than third in the pecking order for those opportunities with the big club as long as J.J. Putz and David Hernandez are around. That window will be pushed back farther following the acquisitions of Craig Breslow and Takashi Saito to bolster the bullpen.
