I thought this was a perfect time to think back to Jacob deGrom’s roots. Do you remember his debut? Or the hype that surrounded his promotion?
The New York Mets didn’t think much of Jake back in 2014, and neither did fans. That’s why I wanted to talk about the day that brought him to stardom, the day that had it gone any different, might not have led to the same career.
We all know that Jake made his debut on May 15th 2014 against the Yankees at Citi Field, but do we remember what led up to it?
