Logan Webb: Everything you need to know

Webb didn't factor into the decision Friday against the Rockies, allowing one run on three hits, three walks and one hit-by-pitch with five strikeouts across 4.1 innings. Making his first start since May 5 after spending three-plus weeks on the injured list due to right knee bursitis, Webb dealt with plenty of deep counts Friday, as the Rockies fouled off 18 of Webb's 86 pitches. His final pitch was a hit-by-pitch that ended a seven-pitch plate appearance with one out in the fifth. Webb's stuff has looked good this season, but the results haven't been great with a 4.82 ERA and 47:18 K:BB across 52.1 innings. His 58.5 percent groundball rate is in the 96th percentile, and Webb's 34.9 percent chase rate is in the 88th percentile. His next start should come next week in Milwaukee.

The Giants reinstated Webb (knee) from the 15-day injured list ahead of his scheduled start against the Rockies on Friday. Webb has been officially cleared to return from a knee injury that landed him on the 15-day IL in early May. He appeared in just one rehab start with Triple-A Sacramento on May 22, when he allowed one unearned run on two hits and three walks while striking out two across 3.1 innings. Webb had a 5.06 ERA and 1.40 WHIP over 48 innings prior to his IL stint, so perhaps he'll be in better form now that he's fully recovered from his knee injury.

Webb (knee) will be activated from the 15-day injured list to start Friday against the Rockies, Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle reports. Manager Tony Vitello previously disclosed the team's plan for Webb to return this upcoming weekend, and Friday is now official. Prior to landing on the IL, Webb had posted an uncharacteristically high 5.06 ERA and 1.40 WHIP over 48 innings spanning eight starts for San Francisco. Webb made a rehab start at Triple-A last Friday, allowing one unearned run on two hits and three walks while striking out two over 3.1 innings (62 pitches).
