INJURIES
Expected to miss two starts Cueto (lat) is expected to miss two starts, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Impact Cueto left his Wednesday start against the Reds with the injury, which was revealed to be a Grade 1 lat strain following further tests. The given timeline means he'll probably return either in the last few days of April or in early May. Logan Webb will fill in for him in the rotation in the meantime.

Giants' Cueto goes on 10-day injured list with lat strain

San Francisco Giants right-hander Johnny Cueto has been placed on the 10-day injured list with a strained lat muscle
APRIL 16, 2021 • Associated Press
Officially placed on injured list Cueto was diagnosed with a Grade 1 lat strain and was placed on the injured list Thursday, John Shea of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.
Impact Cueto was removed early from his start Wednesday with the injury, and it was presumed he would land on the injured list. That news became official, though it is positive that he was diagnosed with a low-level strain. A corresponding move will be made by the team Friday, though Logan Webb is a strong candidate to re-join the rotation in Cueto's absence.

Giants finish a 5-1 homestand but might have to improvise without Johnny Cueto Cueto will likely land on the injured list, which will probably reverse the Giants’ decision to move Logan Webb into the bullpen.

Leaves with lat tightness Cueto left Wednesday's game against the Reds with lat tightness, Kerry Crowley of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Impact He is being examined by the medical staff and there will likely be another update on his status within the next day.

He allowed three hits, zero walks and zero runs while striking out four over 5.2 innings and was only at 68 pitches when he exited.
APRIL 14, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Exits with trainer Cueto left Wednesday's game against the Reds with the trainer after 5.2 scoreless innings, Kerry Crowley of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Impact Cueto struck out four while allowing three hits and was putting together a gem before leaving after 68 pitches. He should be considered questionable to make his start Tuesday in Philadelphia.

Impact Cueto has struggled through three Cactus League starts this spring, as he's allowed eight runs on 12 hits and four walks while striking out nine over 7.1 innings. He'll have his longest throwing session so far during Monday's simulated game, while Kevin Gausman will take the mound during the team's spring game against the White Sox. Manager Gabe Kapler hasn't announced whether Cueto or Gausman will start for the Giants on Opening Day, but Kapler said Sunday that he could reach a decision in the next few days.
