Jacob deGrom Feeling Tightness In His Side
2 years agoTexas Rangers starting pitcher Jacob deGrom (side) felt some tightness in his left side, and the Rangers are going to hold him back a day or two at spring training as a precaution due to how early it is in spring training. According to sources, deGrom would likely play through the issue if it was the regular season. It doesn't sound very serious, but with the oft-injured 34-year-old ace, any injury should cause fantasy managers to hold their breath. deGrom signed a five-year, $185 million deal with the Rangers in December to be Texas' ace moving forward. We'll keep a close eye on him early in camp, but if it turns out to be nothing serious, he'll be a top-10 fantasy starter with injury risk. deGrom has only thrown 182 innings over the last two years due to injuries.
