Jacob deGrom is poised to make his highly-anticipated return to the Majors on Tuesday in Washington, according to MLB.com’s Anthony DiComo, marking the first time that the two-time Cy Young award winner will take the mound for an MLB game in over a year.
After spending the entire 2022 season thus far rehabbing from a stress reaction in his right scapula, deGrom will pitch for the Mets the day after Max Scherzer takes the bump against the Nationals in the nation’s capital. It will mark deGrom’s first Major League start since July 7, 2021.
