FRISCO, Texas -- Jacob deGrom has taken his biggest step yet toward getting back on a big league mound this season, something that's important to Texas' ace right-hander even with the Rangers essentially out of playoff contention.
DeGrom pitched in a game for the first time since April 28, 2023, throwing 29 pitches over two innings in a minor league rehab assignment at Double-A Frisco on Thursday night.
The defending World Series champions started the day 10 games back in the AL West with 34 games remaining, so the return of the two-time NL Cy Young Award winner doesn't figure to make a difference in the race.
