Sandy Alderson downplays Jacob deGrom’s partially torn UCL

“A sprain is the lowest grade partial tear,” Alderson said. “At this point, the sprain has resolved itself. The elbow is, at this point, perfectly intact — based on the MRIs and the critical evaluations of our doctors. So that’s really a technical term that the doctors have used. We don’t use it routinely, but that’s another term for a very mild ligament condition.”
