2 years agoNew York Mets starting pitcher Jacob deGrom (shoulder) will throw his simulated game on Thursday after it was initially scheduled for Tuesday, per MLB Network's Jon Heyman. deGrom felt mild muscle soreness around his shoulder last Sunday but played catch on Monday and Tuesday without issue. As such, the delay of the simulated game is simply due to an abundance of caution. It makes sense that the Mets would be cautious with deGrom given his injury history, but it is currently unclear how this slight delay will impact his potential return date. Fantasy managers should keep an eye out for updates later in the week, as a successful outing may mean a return for deGrom in the near future.--Connelly Doan - RotoBaller
