Another side session on tap DeGrom (forearm) will throw another light side session Tuesday or Wednesday, Justin Toscano of The Bergen Record reports.
Impact DeGrom threw off a mound Sunday and felt good after playing catch Monday. While Manager Luis Rojas said after Sunday's mound session that he didn't know the right-hander's next step in his recovery, he'll throw off a mound at least once more before the team makes a decision. The Mets reportedly intend to have deGrom make a minor-league rehab start before he's activated from the IL, so he could be sidelined until sometime in early August.

Mound session goes well Mets manager Luis Rojas said deGrom (forearm) "felt good" while throwing off a mound Sunday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports. "Everything is progressing well as of now," Rojas sa...
Impact DeGrom stepped back on the mound Sunday for the first time since being diagnosed with the injury July 17, and though the workout went according to plan, the team isn't yet willing to commit to a rehab schedule for the right-hander. According to Mike Puma of the New York Post, the Mets do intend to have deGrom make a minor-league rehab start prior to being activated from the injured list, which means the National League MVP candidate wouldn't be on track to rejoin the big club until early August at the soonest, given where he currently stands in his recovery program. Fantasy managers can probably feel confident that they won't miss out on a deGrom start by keeping him inactive for the Mets' upcoming eight-game week.

Gets back on mound DeGrom (forearm) threw off a mound Sunday, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.
Impact The Mets haven't disclosed whether deGrom completed a true bullpen session, but even light throwing off the mound would mark the first time that he's toed the rubber since being shut down more than a week ago with right forearm tightness. Before making his return from the injured list, deGrom will likely need to complete at least one more bullpen session and face hitters in a live batting practice session or simulated game. He could return to make a start in next weekend's series versus the Reds in a best-case scenario, but it's more likely deGrom's absence stretches into August.

No timetable for return to mound Manager Luis Rojas said Saturday it's unclear when deGrom (forearm) will begin throwing bullpens, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Impact The righty has been playing catch and receiving treatment for his sore forearm, but he doesn't appear particularly close to continuing his throwing progression. Additional information about deGrom and when he might return from the injured list should become available in the next week or so. At this rate, his absence may be long enough that a rehab.assignment will be necessary.

Continues playing catch DeGrom (forearm) played catch again Friday but has yet to advance to mound work, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.
Impact DeGrom has battled multiple nagging injuries throughout the year, though you wouldn't know it when looking at his 1.08 ERA and 0.55 WHIP through 15 starts. He's in the middle of his longest absence thus far, and while the fact that he's yet to throw off a mound means his return to game action isn't imminent, it's certainly a positive that he continues to be able to throw in some capacity.

Resumes throwing DeGrom (forearm) threw off flat ground at Citi Field on Thursday, SNY reports.
Impact DeGrom has been on the injured list since Sunday due to right forearm tightness, but he's been improving recently while shut down from throwing. The Mets were insistent that the right-hander wouldn't resume throwing until his forearm tightness had completely dissipated, so it appears as though he's in a good place in his recovery. A better idea of deGrom's return timetable could come into focus once he's able to ramp up his intensity.
