Jacob deGrom did not throw his live BP session on Tuesday as originally scheduled after the Mets’ oft-injured ace reported soreness, and instead will throw on Thursday.

Al Dukes says it’s time for deGrom to “get lost” after another hiccup in a calendar year that has been full of them, as it has now been a year since deGrom took a major-league mound. That wasn’t Gio’s exact reaction, but he doesn’t seem to be far away from feeling the same way.

“I’m getting to that point now,” Gio said. “After watching him in and out last year, all that time, leaving games and MRIs and nothing popping up…not ‘get lost,’ but ‘get pitching’ for once. How about that? He’s been lost already!”
