Jacob deGrom and Max Scherzer are in the process of returning to New York's rotation.
DeGrom, who has been on the disabled list since July 7, threw 27 pitches to hitters.
Buck Showalter watched the video from Citi Field and said that he would see how he felt tomorrow. We'll probably be able to discuss that next step if he feels well tomorrow.
He missed the second half of last season because of forearm tightness. He returned and made spring training starts on March 22 and 27 but was forced to miss the rest of the season due to a stress reaction in his right shoulder. He didn't throw another one until June 4.
Showalter said that he hasn't had anything that has taken him off schedule yet. He's positive about where he is. The body language is much more than that.
The three-time Cy Young Award winner was placed on the disabled list on May 18 with a strained oblique. He was to pitch against the Yard Goats in his second rehab start.
"I was going to give him a good luck with the Yard Goats, but I don't think he would take it well," Showalter said. I believe I will.
In a game against Reading on June 21, the pitcher gave up two runs and three hits with six strikeouts and a walk.
After agreeing to a $130 million, three-year contract, baseball's highest average salary, the Washington Nationals pitcher is 6-2 with a 2.54 earned run average in eight starts.
