The Mets are close to getting their ace back. According to Jon Morosi, Jacob deGrom’s next start will be at the major league level. This news comes after his impressive rehab start last night.
The Mets placed deGrom on the injured list with right side tightness back on May 11, a move that came two days after he exited his start against the Arizona Diamondbacks after five innings. He has only made the one start in May and has been plagued by lat issues for a few weeks, but all appears fine after last night’s performance.
