deGrom = Strep Throat

[Frayed Knot]

This illness, recently diagnosed as strep, has apparently been dogging JdG for about a week now (possibly explaining the Atlanta game although maybe not the one against the Twins) and it is now

enough to get his next start pushed from Friday to Saturday. Vargas will move back to Friday which was to have been his turn before they moved deGrom up with the idea that he'd then also

get a turn at the Phils when they come to CitiField next week (Mon, Tue, Wed). That obviously won't happen now.

Ouch. No fun.

Hope he didn't kiss any teammates

Jed Lowrie is the Jonathan Tuttle of the New York Mets. Together we all made him up.

If this partially accounts for his back to back non-deGrom like outings, then, yeah, good diagnosis. He needs to be less Trachshel-y.
