PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. - New Mets pitcher Carlos Carrasco is uncertain to be ready for the start of the season after elbow soreness forced him to stop throwing. Carrasco is in remission from leukemia and had the novel coronavirus vaccine. But also he’s experienced some soreness in his elbow right now, apparently coming from the live BP that he threw the other day,” Rojas said Wednesday. Carrasco is projected to be part of rotation with two-time L Cy Young Award winner Jacob deGrom, Marcus Stroman, Taijuan Walker and David Peterson. “He is making this sound like it’s something that’s happened before and then he just goes through it, some elbow soreness, and gets right back on the mound,” Rojas said.
