As the playoff hopes of the Pittsburgh Pirates took a hit during the last two and a half weeks, all Gerrit Cole could do was watch.The Pirates ace will make his return from the 15-day disabled list (elbow) Monday when Pittsburgh opens a four-game series in Philadelphia. But the Pirates have almost eliminated themselves from the playoffs. Sundays loss in Cincinnati marked their third in a row and 11th in their last 13.Theyve fallen to 5 1/2 games behind St. Louis for the final wildcard spot in the National League playoff race. Theyre now 69-72 on the year. Pittsburgh was 63-61 when Cole last made a start.Cole, the teams ace, has had a disappointing and injury-plagued 2016. He has a 3.55 ERA in 20 starts. In his last four starts before hitting the DL with elbow inflammation, he gave up 34 hits and 17 earned runs in 21 2/3 innings, helping drop his record on the year to 7-9. This, after an impressive 2.60 ERA in 32 starts in 2015.Its the injuries that slowed him in 2016.It is awful, Cole said Thursday, according to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.

And theyll likely use a variety of pitchers down the stretch, as some pitchers are reaching their innings limits.Veteran righty Jeremy Hellickson (10-9, 3.90 ERA), whom the Phillies decided to hang onto at the trade deadline, meets Cole Monday night.Hellickson, 29, has been the veteran presence and innings eater the young Phillies pitching staff has relied on.I think having Jeremy here is very important to our club, general manager Matt Klentak said last month. There was a reason we brought him here in the first place. The reason we traded for him was to add some stability to our rotation, help to mentor our young pitchers, to help to protect them from the workloads, help to save the bullpen.Hell continue to do all of that as the final three weeks of the season play out.
