WASHINGTON (AP) — Two-time Cy Young Award winner Jacob deGrom has been transferred to the 60-day injured list by the New York Mets. The procedural move does not necessarily indicate anything new with his progress in returning from a stress reaction on his right shoulder blade. DeGrom has not pitched this season and has been expected to be sidelined at least until June. By shifting the right-hander from the 10-day IL, the NL East-leading Mets made room on their 40-man roster for lefty Locke St. John, who was waived by the Chicago Cubs.
