Mets manager Buck Showalter provided an update on the status of pitcher Jacob deGrom Thursday as the four-time All-Star continues rehabbing his injured right shoulder.
Appearing on WFAN’s Carton & Roberts radio show, Showalter said the outlook on deGrom’s injury is looking “pretty positive so far” before discussing New York’s plan for the 33-year-old moving forward. deGrom was placed on the 10-day injured list last week after being diagnosed with a stress reaction in his right scapula near the end of spring training.
“He will be here tomorrow and then go back to [Port] St. Lucie to rehab—and as soon as he starts throwing, he will rejoin us and do all his throwing with us,” he told hosts Craig Carton and Evan Roberts.
