DeGrom said Sunday that his stiff neck is feeling "much better" and he remains optimistic he'll be able to make his first start of the season Tuesday or Wednesday in Baltimore, Kennedi Landry of MLB.com reports.

The veteran righty had been scheduled to start Saturday's game in Philadelphia, but he ended up being scratched just hours before the contest after his neck acted up. DeGrom seems to have responded well to the extra rest and he was able to play catch out to 120 feet Sunday. The Rangers may want to see deGrom complete a bullpen session Monday before clearing him to make his 2026 debut.
