Fantasy Impact:
Cobb, signed to a one-year, $15 million deal by the Tigers this winter, was projected to slot into the middle of the Tigers' rotation but will have to shake off this ailment before making his team debut. The veteran had been a steady source of run prevention with an ERA of 3.87 or better in each of his last four seasons. Top prospect Jackson Jobe now looks increasingly likely to break camp in the club's rotation this spring.
