The 6 Players Defining the 2021 MLB Season

Baseball's youth movement is in full swing (no pun intended).

The kids are dominating MLB this season, along with Mike Trout, who isn't quite a kid anymore as he approaches 30, but he plays with the enthusiasm of a younger man and somehow keeps getting better with age.

The same goes for Jacob deGrom, the New York Mets ace who is getting better and throwing harder as the team's offense continually fails to support him. Baseball can be a befuddling game, and this is one conundrum the Mets have yet to solve, despite significant roster improvements made throughout the last five years.
