MLB Rumors: Alex Cobb, Baltimore Orioles agree to deal, per report

MLB Rumors: Alex Cobb and the Baltimore Orioles have reportedly agreed to a free agent contract, with Jon Heyman saying the deal is worth close to $60 million over 4 years.

Cobb, formerly of the Tampa Bay Rays, was one of four premier starting pitchers on the free agent market this offseason, comparable to St. Louis starting pitcher Lance Lynn, and a tier below Yu Darvish and Jake Arrieta. He is also the final one of that group to sign, and for more than probably was expected after Lynn had to settle for a one year deal.
