Two-time Cy Young Award winner Jacob deGrom faced live hitters for the third time in recent weeks on Saturday and said he feels ready to begin a rehab assignment next week in hopes of pitching for the Texas Rangers for the first time since June 2023.
\"My arm feels great except now it\'s just been, what, how many months? Fourteen?\" said deGrom, 36, who threw about 45 pitches in three innings. \"You\'ve got your guys [teammates] in there. You go face other guys, and I think that\'ll help a little bit.\"
A rehab assignment beginning next week would likely be with Double-A Frisco.
