deGrom to miss next (4/13) start

"Lingering back soreness" will cause deGrom to skip Wednesday's scheduled start vs Miami sez the NYDN.
"We’re not going to take the chance,” manager Terry Collins said.
deGrom himself added; "It's quite a bit better today, I think we're going to err on the side of caution, though, this early in the season."

Logan Verrett is the probable replacement.

Might as well wait until it's at least 60° again. It will be eventually. No, really.

Did his wife have the baby yet? I imagine he's down in Florida now. Let him stay with the family for the week.
But no lifting the baby.

Worries here also. His velocity was down this spring.

If it coincides with Babygrom at least he'll be able to relax about that.

Hoping warmer weather helps him

Yeah, I don't like the twin data points of lowered velocity and back soreness.

Re: deGrom to miss next (4/13) start

I don't know if it was wishful thinking, but the storyline in his last spring training start or two was that his velocity was returning to normal.

Re: deGrom to miss next (4/13) start

Nobody believes the party line?

-Increased innings/workload last year pushed his timetable back so the lowered velocity is not surprising and almost expected.
-deGrom says his back feels 'much better' and they are erring on the side of caution?

I'm good with all of that until there's a reason not to be.

Re: deGrom to miss next (4/13) start

I mean, the opposing pitcher hit one 390 feet and though he finished the inning, he vamoosed. None of us really know and you can take the no-MRI thing as a positive but I still prefer bulletproof deGrom as opposed to "abundance of caution" deGrom.

Re: deGrom to miss next (4/13) start

Papa deG to throw a bullpen session on Friday in Cleveland. If that goes well then he'll start on Tuesday in Philly.
If not then "we're probably going to have to consider something else" says Terry. IOW: DL

Re: deGrom to miss next (4/13) start

Currently looking like a big N-O to the D-L for D-grom - according to Rubin

...Jacob deGrom is on track to return to the rotation on Tuesday in Philadelphia after missing his last turn.
DeGrom threw on flat ground Thursday and had a bullpen session on Friday in Florida. He is due to throw off flat ground again on Saturday, then throw another bullpen session on Sunday. Provided everything goes OK, deGrom can slot back into the rotation his next turn.

Re: deGrom to miss next (4/13) start

And now, as if on cue, the story seems to change

Puma, NY Post: All indications point to [deGrom] receiving a stint on the disabled list, although he may throw again Sunday in Port St. Lucie before a final determination is reached.
On Friday, he threw an abbreviated 25-pitch side session, with a club source indicating his lat was still an issue.
DeGrom, according to manager Terry Collins, has undergone an MRI exam — the results of which the team never made public. But the fact deGrom was allowed to throw Friday indicates he is not dealing with a tear in the muscle

That also explains why deGrom remained in Florida for his throwing trial after the team had previously announced he was to re-join the team in Cleveland and do the bullpen session there.

And maybe MLB could come up with a "Family Medical Leave" status — that's the same as bereavement leave in name only, but doesn't lead to any premature punches in the gut when announced.

My wife had the same idea. Calling it bereavement leave is both horrifying and misleading in cases like this.

Per Metsblog:
Collins also confirmed that RHP Bartolo Colon will take the mound Wednesday in the series finale against Philadelphia, as scheduled. RHP Matt Harvey and LHP Steven Matz will start the first two games in Atlanta Friday and Saturday, with deGrom throwing in the series finale on Sunday. RHP Noah Syndergaard will start on Monday as the Mets open their series at home against Cincinnati.

A few details on de Trials of de Kid -- basically a newborn version of apnea; "When he would fall asleep, he would stop breathing," said deGrom.
