Jacob deGrom named a Cy Young award finalist

For the third consecutive season, Jacob deGrom has been named a finalist for the National League Cy Young Award by the Baseball Writers Association of America. He is up against Trevor Bauer of the Reds and Yu Darvish of the Cubs.

In a shortened 60-game season, deGrom had an “ordinary” year by his standards. Still, he was still his usual dependable and, more often than not, exceptional self as the rest of the team’s starting rotation suffered with injuries and subpar performances.
