ARLINGTON \u2014 This is not the first time that Rangers right-handed pitcher\u00a0Jacob deGrom<\/a> has felt hip soreness after a start. It is the first time that it’s lingered this long, though, and that’s why the Rangers will utilize the All-Star break to give the two-time Cy Young award winner ample time to shake the ailment.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“[The doctor] doesn’t think it’s something that’s going to get worse,” deGrom said. “He’s just like, ‘It’s there, just give it the time to calm down.’ I told him it’s something I can pitch with, and he’s like, ‘Yeah, it’s in an area where it’s not really going to get worse, it’s just what you can deal with.’ I said I can deal with it right now, and then the discussion becomes, do we take this extra time because we have it?”<\/p>\n

The Rangers took it, and while deGrom will progress through his “normal throwing progression” over the break, he won’t throw off a mound until the second half begins. Rangers manager Skip Schumaker estimated that deGrom could potentially throw a bullpen Friday or Saturday at Atlanta’s Truist Park before the club determines its next steps.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Rangers right-handed pitcher Jakob Junis<\/a>, the bullpen’s setup man, played catch before Sunday’s game and will work out at the club’s Surprise, Ariz. complex over the break as he works his way back from a hip impingement. He could potentially throw a live bullpen over the break, and if all goes well, could either rejoin the active roster or start a minor league rehab assignment.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"ARLINGTON \u2014 This is not the first time that Rangers right-handed pitcher\u00a0Jacob deGrom has felt hip soreness after…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":368893,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[150,152,151],"class_list":["post-370471","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-arlington","tag-arlington","tag-arlington-headlines","tag-arlington-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/370471","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=370471"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/370471\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/368893"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=370471"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=370471"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=370471"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
