Ex-Mets manager Buck Showalter set the record straight about Jacob deGrom's departure from Queens last year.
Ex-New York Mets manager Buck Showalter says the rumors about his former two-time Cy Young winning ace were not true., superstar right-handed starting pitcher Jacob deGrom "didn't want to leave" the team in free agency following the 2022 season.
It made sense that he would prefer to either go back home to pitch in Florida or another southern state, as opposed to New York. However, the Mets drafted deGrom in the 9th round of the 2010 MLB Draft and he spent the entirety of his career in Queens from 2014-2022. But injuries derailed a potential Hall of Fame résumé in his last two seasons with the club.
DeGrom underwent Tommy John surgery last spring and missed the remainder of the 2023 season, which ended with his team winning the World Series without him. This is no knock on deGrom, but it shows how strong of a club the Rangers had last year.
