Texas Rangers pitcher Jacob deGrom exits his Thursday night start against the Los Angeles Angels after two innings due to right triceps fatigue. Reports from multiple outlets say he leaves the game in the second inning and that the issue is related to his triceps rather than other mechanics or performance concerns.
The coverage agrees on his early-game stat line: he allows six hits, strikes out three batters, and walks one while working through two innings. Fox Sports adds that deGrom says he is “not too concerned.” Yahoo Sports also reports that he is scheduled to undergo an MRI to assess the condition, reflecting standard evaluation when a starter exits early for injury-related reasons.
Other outlets also note the timing of the situation and frame it as a potential short-term availability question. Winnipeg Free Press further indicates that deGrom could be considered for a subsequent start against the Nationals about a week later, depending on the results of the medical evaluation and his recovery.
