With Jacob deGrom having made yet another excellent start on Sunday and set to pitch again on Friday in the Mets’ series opener with the Blue Jays, it’s as good a time as any to check in on where deGrom stands in the National League Cy Young race. And it helps that Yu Darvish and Trevor Bauer, two of his main competitors for the award, pitched against each other last night.
Given the brevity of the season, stats are prone to changing wildly and quickly, but thus far, deGrom has been incredibly consistent.
