Jacob deGrom (triceps fatigue) unlikely to make next start, but early news is positive
deGrom is not expected to take his next turn in the Rangers rotation due to triceps fatigue, though initial reports describe the news as positive.
Jacob deGrom is unlikely to make his next scheduled start after exiting with right triceps fatigue, per a report from Theo DeRosa on MLB.com — though the Rangers are describing the early news as positive.
The fatigue issue first surfaced when deGrom left his start against the Angels early, with imaging expected to follow. The results of that process appear to have avoided the worst-case scenario, but the club is still holding him back from his next turn in the rotation. What exactly the imaging showed, and how long deGrom might be sidelined, remains unconfirmed.
What we don't know yet
No timetable has been attached to his absence, and no IL move has been reported. The gap between "positive news" and "back on the mound" is where Rangers fans will be watching closely.
The bigger picture
Texas has been navigating a rotation in flux. Jack Leiter recently began a rehab assignment at Triple-A Round Rock, which adds some depth to the picture — though his timeline back to the majors is also unspecified. The Rangers' rotation situation bears watching as this deGrom update develops.
