Arizona Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo said Ryne Nelson will start in the series opener against the New York Mets on Monday, according to azcentral’s Nick Piecoro.
Nelson gets the ball with Corbin Burnes out for Monday’s game as he deals with right shoulder inflammation.
Monday’s game at Chase Field will mark Nelson’s first start of 2025 after pitching out of the bullpen to start the season. He will be able to throw between 80-85 pitches.
Nelson started 25 games in 2024, posting a 10-6 record with a 4.24 ERA, 125 strikeouts and a 1.25 WHIP.
