Jacob DeGrom’s injury update: the Mets leave with a sore shoulder after three innings

Mets ace Jacob DeGrom is dealing with another health problem.

Due to a sore pitching shoulder, the right-hander left his starting position after playing three games against the Cubs on Wednesday night. DeGrome started five days after his previous game was shortened due to elbow tendinitis.

DeGrom retired all nine Cubs batsmen he faced, knocking down eight of them, and he often threw his fastball at 100 miles per hour. But after throwing the ball at Eric Sogard, he seemed to feel something in his arm.

The Metropolis broadcaster pointed out that he then spent more time between pitches. He went to the locker room after retiring from Chicago in the third quarter. Sean Reid-Foley was relieved in the fourth game.

DeGrom told reporters after the game (the Mets won 6-3) that the soreness in the back of his shoulder suddenly hit.

“It felt good to warm up, it felt very good in the first and second innings, and then my shoulder was sore in the third inning,” he said. “This is outdated. I want to participate in games with these little guys and get out of these games-hope it’s okay. (I) said something, hope that before then… (I) didn’t Hope it becomes anything serious.”

He said the in-game test ruled out a serious problem. The next thing for him to do on Thursday is an MRI to “check that box.”

The Mets manager Luis Rojas said he had “not paid great attention.”

Due to elbow tendinitis, DeGrom left his starting position in Friday’s game against the Padres after six innings.DeGrom Tell reporters after the game He has experienced elbow problems in the past, and he is optimistic that he will not miss a turn.

He missed three turns earlier in the season due to latissimus dorsi stimulation and lateral discomfort.

“I think these are three different issues,” DeGrom said when asked if he thinks injuries are interrelated. “I think the latissimus dorsi is related to the swing and the elbow. I didn’t think too much about it. Like I said, I’m very confident that it’s nothing, and I’m also very confident that it’s nothing.”
