Mets ace Jacob deGrom is scheduled to make a spring training start against the Cardinals on Friday, April 1.
However, it sounds like he won’t be making that start due to shoulder tightness, Inside The Mets’s Pat Ragazzo reported.
Mets manager Buck Showalter said the pitcher felt the tightness while practicing catch on Thursday. The manager said he would be “surprised” if his pitcher made his first start tomorrow.
