Rangers' deGrom could start against Nats a week after exiting early with triceps fatigue
Jacob deGrom checked out OK after a bullpen session and could return for the series finale after leaving his last start with triceps fatigue.
- On Wednesday, Texas Rangers manager Skip Schumaker said Jacob Degrom could start Thursday's series finale against the Washington Nationals after clearing a bullpen session.
- Last Thursday in Anaheim, Degrom lasted only two innings against the Los Angeles Angels before exiting with right triceps fatigue, compounding left hip and glute injuries since the All-Star break.
- Chasing his 2,000th career strikeout, Degrom needs two more to reach the milestone while carrying a 3.95 ERA, the highest mark in his 13 big league seasons.
- The five-time All-Star has made 23 starts this season and could match last year's total of 30 starts for the Rangers if he remains healthy.
- Reaching 30 starts would mark Degrom's highest volume since his Young Award seasons with the New York Mets in 2018 and 2019, as he navigates an injury-impacted campaign.
