New York Mets ace Jacob deGrom will have another MRI on his injured right scapula Monday, MLB.com reported.

It is the third MRI since late March for the 33-year-old right-hander, who landed on the injured list on April 7 with a stress reaction on his right shoulder blade.

He was transferred to the 60-day IL on May 10 and won’t be eligible to come off the list until June 6.

The four-time All-Star has not pitched in a game since July 7 of last season. In 15 starts last season, deGrom went 7-2 with a 1.08 ERA, striking out 146 batters hitters in 92 innings.

The winner of the National League Cy Young Award in 2018 and 2019, deGrom is 77-53 with a 2.50 ERA in 198 career starts over eight seasons with the Mets.
