NEW YORK _ Jacob deGrom will make his next start for the Mets on Monday, manager Mickey Callaway said before Saturday's game against the Rockies.
DeGrom hyperextended his elbow swinging the bat in his last start but an MRI revealed no ligament damage.
He has since continued his regular preparation for his start on Monday.
"His bullpen was great," Callaway said. "No issues whatsoever."
Callaway added that he does not plan on having deGrom swing the bat, though.
"If it were up to me they would never swing in BP or in the game," Callaway said. "We don't need their spot in the lineup to score runs ... at this point I think he's better off to go up there and just bunt and get guys over."
