4 years agoNew York Mets starting pitcher Jacob deGrom was solid on Monday against the Tampa Bay Rays, striking out 14 hitters over seven innings of work in the Mets 2-1 loss. deGrom, pitching for the first time since having to leave a start last Wednesday after only two innings pitched with a right hamstring spasm, was sharp. He allowed only four hits, two walks and two earned runs. deGrom (4-2) now boasts a 2.14 ERA, 0.92 WHIP and 94:16 K:BB in 63 innings pitched on the season. deGrom will make one more start on Saturday against the Nationals as he makes a final push to win an unprecedented third straight National League Cy Young award. He is a lockdown fantasy ace and should of course be active for that final start against Washington in all formats.--Nick Ritrivi - RotoBaller
