Gerrit Cole will likely miss his next scheduled start and possibly another with triceps tightness.

Cole left Friday's game between the Pittsburgh Pirates and St. Louis Cardinals in the third inning with the injury to his pitching arm after giving up a leadoff single.

"If we can knock this out in 15 days, we might be better served to knock this out in 15 days," Neal Huntington told the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. "We're not there yet. His next start is certainly in doubt, almost certainly not going to happen."
