deGrom's name was always thrown in as the kicker during the Harvey/Wheeler/Syndergaard/deGrom discussion days, when Mets fans thought they were going to win 7 out of the next 10 World Series with that pitching staff. Not only did he end up being the best of the 4, he's the only one left basically.DeGrom’s story is pretty crazy. 9th round pick, $ 95,000 to sign on, didn’t start pitching until his junior year at Stetson, serious injuries earlier in his pro career, did make the big club until he was 26
