deGrom heading for TJ.  5/$185 million contract for about 2.5 years of service if they are lucky.

deGrom's HoF vote is going to be interesting. Arguably the best pitcher in baseball over a six-year span but a career derailed by injuries. I guess not much different than Strasburg though i haven't checked career starts.

deGrom is definitely a tier above Strasburg, and that's no slight against Stras. Peak Strasburg was a top-10 to a top-5 pitcher. Peak deGrom was the best pitcher in baseball period.

Baseball reference metrics give him no chance. He’s going to need a few injury free years and I doubt he gets them
