Sacramento River Cats News Release
West Sacramento, CA - San Francisco Giants' All-Star pitcher Johnny Cueto is expected to begin a rehab assignment with the Sacramento River Cats this Saturday, June 23 as he works his way back from injury.
The Giants' righty has been on the shelf since late April when he was placed on the disabled list with a sprained right elbow. Saturday would be Cueto's third career appearance at Raley Field, as he started for the Giants against the River Cats in the 2016 Exhibition Game, and again in August of 2017, this time for the River Cats, while rehabbing a right forearm injury. The two-time all-star and 2014 Cy Young runner-up has been a key member of the Giants rotation since signing as a free agent ahead of the 2015 season.
Tickets are still available for each game of the upcoming homestand against the El Paso Chihuahuas, including scheduled rehab starts for both Jeff Samardzija (tonight) and Cueto. For more information, please visit rivercats.com or call 916.371.HITS (4487).
