DeGrom (forearm) threw a 35-pitch bullpen session Monday and could be used in relief by the Mets as early as late this week, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

DeGrom might return to the team's rotation before the end of the year. But the Mets may ease him back to active duty through reief appearances before he progresses to starting. If deGrom has no setbacks from Monday's effort, he will toss another bullpen session Wednesday and then return to active duty.
