The San Francisco Giants could make a play for the nephew of Alex Cobb, who is working his way back from injury.
veteran pitcher Alex Cobb is working his way back from left hip surgery and shoulder irritation, which has delayed his start to the season.
Mavrick Rizy is a 19-year-old pitcher with an interesting measurable — he’s 6-10 — which would put him among the tallest pitchers in MLB history if he made it to the Majors one day. That makes him the same height as “The Big Unit,” Randy Johnson, who ended his career with the Giants and won his 300th career game with the team.Rizy can hit 98 mph and is considered the top high school prospect in New England. Given those measurables, the 19-year-old has gotten the attention of college scouts, too.
In the lead-up to the MLB Draft, Rizy participated in the MLB Draft Scouting Combine. He also played in the Futures Collegiate Baseball League.
