In a Tuesday afternoon press conference, Luis Rojas announced that New York Mets ace Jacob deGrom underwent an MRI. At the time the team was still waiting for the results, but they were optimistic.
According to Rojas, the Mets’ ace had shown no visible signs of injury. In fact, he was hitting 100 mph in one inning he pitched. It wasn’t until deGrom told the Mets staff he was having tightness that they began to worry.
Now Anthony DiComo of MLB.com is reporting that deGrom’s MRI came back clean. The Mets are listing their potential Opening Day starter as day-to-day.
