This is a big relief for the Giants. TJS for Cueto would have been a serious blow to the team's chances to stay competitive for a playoff spot. They have a lot of guys that have to get healthy in short order. To put another "ace" on the shelf long-term would not have been good. Phew!!

Giants pitcher Johnny Cueto diagnosed with elbow sprain — no surgery needed - SFGate:
PHILADELPHIA — The Giants on Monday split an odd sort of doubleheader that unfolded in two cities.
In the morning, they got a win of sorts in Pensacola, Fla., where one of the nation’s most renowned orthopedic surgeons told Johnny Cueto that he did not need Tommy John elbow reconstruction surgery.
At night, in Philadelphia, the Phillies hit four homers good for 10 runs and routed the Giants 11-0 to end San Francisco’s winning streak at four.
