DeGrom (side) showed no injury or inflammation in his MRI results, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

The righty ace went to the injured list merely as a precaution and, according to the Mets, to ensure his mechanics aren't negatively impacted by his pitching through the tightness. The encouraging MRI results reinforce that deGrom will likely stay on the IL for the minimum of 10 days and return May 21.
