New York Mets star Jacob deGrom missed the second half of the 2021 season with an elbow injury, which he believed stemmed from getting an MRI.
Anthony DiComo of MLB.com detailed the situation from the pitcher's July test to check on his elbow discomfort:
"Although the MRI revealed nothing more than a mild forearm strain, deGrom’s arm discomfort spread from his forearm to elbow in the ensuing days. He believes now that the positioning of his arm in that MRI tube—he laid on his stomach with his elbow raised above him for nearly an hour—exacerbated the issue.
