DeGrom (back) will be away from the team for the birth of his baby, but manager Terry Collins said that there are no immediate plans to place him on the paternity list, Adam Rubin of ESPN New York reports.

This doesn't change deGrom's outlook, as he was already expected to miss a start this week due to some lat tightness. Logan Verrett will slot into his spot in the rotation until deGrom returns and feels better.
