Alex Cobb Injury: Receives injection

Cobb (hip) received an injection in his left hip Friday, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.

Cobb threw two innings in a rehab start Wednesday with Triple-A Toledo, but he was apparently in need of further treatment to address inflammation in his left hip. The Tigers haven't indicated how long Cobb will be held out while he waits for the injection to take effect before resuming his rehab assignment. Through his three outings in the minors thus far between Toledo and High-A West Michigan, Cobb owns a 1.42 ERA, 1.11 WHIP and 7:5 K:BB over 6.1 innings.
