Jacob DeGrom's agent, Brodie van Wagenen, says the New York Mets ace would like to remain in Flushing for years to come, according to Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic.

"We have discussed Jacob’s future with the Mets at length. Jacob has expressed interest in exploring a long-term partnership that would keep him in a Mets uniform for years to come. If the Mets don’t share same interest, we believe their best course of action is to seriously consider trade opportunities now. The inertia of current situation could complicate Jacob’s relationship with the club and creates an atmosphere of indecision.
