Jacob deGrom Cleared to Start on Monday Against White Sox
Texas Rangers right-hander Jacob deGrom (glute) has been cleared to start Monday's series opener against the Chicago White Sox at Globe Life Field, according to Kennedi Landry of MLB.com. A mild left glute strain caused deGrom to be skipped from his final start of the first half of the season, but he's ready to go now after throwing a bullpen session in Atlanta on Saturday. The matchup against the suddenly competitive White Sox isn't an easy one for his first start of the second half, but the 38-year-old veteran should still probably be considered a must-start for fantasy purposes for his strikeout upside and recent strong run of form. deGrom is 7-5 in 2026 with a 3.49 ERA (3.40 FIP) and 1.01 WHIP with 122 strikeouts and 22 walks in 100 2/3 frames across his 18 starts in his 13th year in the big leagues. The five-time All-Star and two-time Cy Young winner is 4-1 with a 3.07 ERA, 1.02 WHIP, and 52:10 K:BB in 41 innings over his last seven starts.
