DeGrom (5-2) won Saturday's 4-0 game against the Padres, going seven innings and allowing no runs on three hits and a walk with 11 strikeouts.
EDGE Analysis
DeGrom was customarily dominant in this one, cruising through the start aside from a bases-loaded jam in the fourth inning. In nine starts this season, DeGrom has allowed no runs in five starts while allowing a single run in the other four and lowered his ERA to 0.62 with the sterling outing. He lines up to face San Diego again at home next Saturday.

DeGrom (4-2) earned the win Monday against the Diamondbacks after tossing six scoreless innings, giving up two hits and fanning eight.
EDGE Analysis
It was another dominant effort from the star hurler, who has yet to allow more than one earned run in any of his eight appearances this season. DeGrom also has six quality starts and a sterling 0.71 ERA that, if sustained across an entire season, would be a career-best mark by a wide margin. He will try to extend his blistering start to the season Saturday at the Padres.

DeGrom won't pitch as scheduled Monday against Atlanta since the game was postponed due to inclement weather, Mets owner Steven Cohen reports.
EDGE Analysis
It's the second postponement of the series as Friday's contest was also called off due to weather. DeGrom will be pushed back to start Monday's series opener against Arizona, Justin Toscano of The Bergen Record reports.

DeGrom did not factor into the decision during Tuesday's win after holding the Rockies to one run on three hits and no walks while striking out nine across five innings.
EDGE Analysis
After missing two major-league starts due to right side tightness, deGrom made a solid return to the rotation. His only damage of the night came via a solo homer by Ryan McMahon in the second inning. Per usual, deGrom found a way to miss bats, throwing 44 of 63 pitches for strikes, including 12 swinging strikes. It's worth noting that he struck out eight of 10 batters during his rehab assignment Thursday and seems to be returning to usual form with his pitch count expected to stretch out in his coming starts. Now sporting a sparkling 0.80 ERA and 0.60 WHIP across seven appearances this year, the 32-year-old is slated for a Sunday matchup at home against Atlanta.

DeGrom (side) was officially activated from the injured list Tuesday ahead of his start against the Rockies, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
This comes as no surprise, as it was reported earlier in the week that the Mets' ace would take the ball Tuesday against Colorado. DeGrom is not expected to be on any sort of strict pitch count during his return, though New York will likely be cautious with its star right hander.

DeGrom (side) won't have an official pitch count when he gets activated from the injured list and returns to the rotation Tuesday, Laura Albanese of Newsday reports. "We want to see how the game goes," manager Luis Rojas said Monday. "He's going to tell us going through the game, going inning by inning. ... [The message is] go ahead and pitch and do what you do, and once we get a feel from different views, I think there's when a decision is going to be made."
EDGE Analysis
It's reassuring for fantasy GMs who plan on plugging deGrom back into their lineups right away that he won't be held back too much, but it still wouldn't be a surprise if the Mets' ace comes out of the game a little earlier than he otherwise might after lasting only five innings in his last outing May 9. On the season, deGrom sports an otherworldly 0.68 ERA, 0.60 WHIP and 65:7 K:BB through 40 frames over six starts.

DeGrom (side) threw a bullpen session Sunday and is expected to rejoin the starting rotation Tuesday against the Rockies, Justin Toscano of The Bergen Record reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 32-year-old made a rehab start with Low-A St. Lucie on Thursday, and it appears he won't require another start in the minors before returning from the shelf. Things won't be official until deGrom is actually activated from the injured list, but he's on track to retake the mound Tuesday for the Mets.

DeGrom (side) is expected to pitch somewhere Tuesday, but whether that comes against the Rockies or in a rehab game remains to be seen, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.
EDGE Analysis
DeGrom was originally expected to miss just one turn in the rotation while dealing with side soreness, but he threw a rehab game Thursday rather than return to the big-league rotation. Previous reports indicated he'd return to the active roster Tuesday, but it looks as though the Mets have yet to make a decision about their ace's immediate future.

DeGrom (side) is expected to make his next start in the majors after completing a successful rehab start Thursday, Jon Morosi of MLB Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
The 32-year-old threw 41 pitches over three scoreless frames in a rehab start with Low-A St. Lucie on Thursday, and he's now poised to rejoin the Mets' rotation for his next outing. If he remains on a five-day pitching schedule, deGrom will be activated from the injured list and take the mound Tuesday at home versus the Rockies

DeGrom (side) threw 41 pitches and struck out eight across three scoreless innings in a rehab outing with Low-A St. Lucie on Thursday, Justin Toscano of The Bergen Record reports.
EDGE Analysis
DeGrom also reportedly hit 102 mph with his fastball. The outing was certainly a strong step toward his return from the injured list, though it's unclear whether the team will want him to complete another rehab outing prior to being activated.
