ARLINGTON, Texas -- Rangers ace Jacob deGrom is "definitely frustrated" that he's landed on the injured list with right forearm tightness.
"I want to be out there," deGrom said Sunday, speaking to the media for the first time since he was placed on the IL on Saturday. "There's a little inflammation in there, so the goal is to get that knocked out here in the next few days and resume throwing. So, staying optimistic about it."
DeGrom exited after 3u2154 innings in his last start against the New York Yankees on Friday night.
