It is to no one's surprise that Jacob deGrom is one of the most dominant starting pitchers of this generation. Despite suffering from injuries the past two seasons, the two-time National League Cy Young winner is back and is shutting down teams.Stats By STATS@StatsBySTATSLast 6 starts for @Mets' Jacob deGrom:8/7: Retired 17 in a row8/13: Retired 16 in a row8/18: Retired 12 in a row8/25: Retired 13 in a row8/31: Retired 12 in a rowToday: Retired 12 in a rowNobody else in last 40 years has retired 12 in a row in more than 4 straight starts2953520Last 6 starts for @Mets' Jacob deGrom:8/7: Retired 17 in a row8/13: Retired 16 in a row8/18: Retired 12 in a row8/25: Retired 13 in a row8/31: Retired 12 in a rowToday: Retired 12 in a rowNobody else in last 40 years has retired 12 in a row in more than 4 straight startsJacob deGrom was out for almost an entire year until finally returning to the New York Mets in late July. He came back strong and has consistently dominated opposing hitters. In his past six starts, deGrom has retired 12 or more batters in a row. For the past 40 MLB seasons, no other pitcher has done this before.Chris Murcray@ChrisMurcray@StatsBySTATS @michaelmayer22 @Mets deGromination!!!!!1@StatsBySTATS @michaelmayer22 @Mets deGromination!!!!!In his limited time this season, Jacob deGrom has put up some impressive numbers.

The contract extension he recieved from the New York Mets has finally run out, and he will become a free agent after this season. Rumors have arisen that he is seeking a deal worth $50 million per year and could sign with the Atlanta Braves if not the Mets.frank vignola@VignolaFrank@StatsBySTATS @Mets Thats why he will break the bank.

During a time when the Mets are contending for a World Series title, it is crucial that they keep deGrom on the roster. It would be a shame to see him go to the Atlanta Braves, one of New York's division rivals.Kase Mermans@KMermans@StatsBySTATS @Mets Can’t wait for him to wear a braves uniform@StatsBySTATS @Mets Can’t wait for him to wear a braves uniformivanlopez22@ivanlopez2210@StatsBySTATS @Mets Going to cool Af when he’s a brave next year (:@StatsBySTATS @Mets Going to cool Af when he’s a brave next year (:DeGrom has been one of the greatest pitchers of the past decade and will likely dominate for the seasons to come.
