Jacob deGrom pulled after one inning on Sunday

The Mets pulled Jacob deGrom after just one inning of work in their 4-2 loss to the Phillies on Sunday. deGrom, returning from a 10-day DL stint due to a hyperextended elbow, walked three and struck out two in his one inning, throwing 45 pitches.
Fantasy Impact:
The Mets claim deGrom did not reinjure his elbow. They said after the game that he was removed after the one inning due to weather conditions and a high first inning pitch count, playing it safe with deGrom returning from the DL. Owners should be skeptical and monitor this situation carefully before activating him, particularly in weekly lineup lock leagues. Hopefully more information will come out on Monday as it is difficult to take Mets’ brass injury information at face value.
