Jacob deGrom pitched four innings for Triple-A Syracuse Wednesday in what's expected to be his last minor league rehab outing before rejoining the New York Mets' rotation.

"The plan right now, if everything progresses well, is to pitch for us next time," Buck Showalter said. "But that could change by what we hear [Thursday] or the next day."

The two-time Cy Young winner would likely return to the Mets early next week in Washington.
