OT: MLB Thread XLVII

[nyr2k2]

It's just absurd how good deGrom is. Best pitcher on the planet. I mean come on.

The Mets better win a WS for him before he's done, or else that will go down as an all time waste.

 

[sbjnyc]

Record 49ks in first 4 starts of season for DeGrom. Maybe he can add a couple more.

Edit: 6 straight for 50 and first game with 15.

 

[NYR94]

Well this tweet is not accurate anymore after what sbjnyc mentioned but you get the idea

 

[GoAwayGiannone]

deGrom I think is the best athlete I've ever seen play for a NY sports team in my lifetime. He's squeezed out Hank in that regard and he's my favorite of all time.

 

[GoAwayGiannone]

And he's going another inning. I want this man to adopt me.

 

[Bob Richards]

Don't even have words for DeGrom. All the superlatives don't do it justice.

 

[nyr2k2]

Funny when 4 runs on 8 hits through 7 feels like a f***ING EXPLOSION.

 

[sbjnyc]

He has a shot to break 2 MLB records if he pitches the next 2 innings so I don't think they take him out.

The way the bullpen has been going, this game should be his to win or lose...let him go 9.

 

[GoAwayGiannone]

This game must be what people who watched Jordan on the Bulls felt like.

Minus the 2 3-peats.

 

[RangersFan]

deGrom going for the complete game.

 

[nyr2k2]

He's also our best hitter. 1.182 OPS. You can't make it up.

 

[sbjnyc]

Nimmo with the HR so DeGrom doesn't have to run.

 

[Deleted member 23124]

deGrom going for the complete game.

He better be. this is no time for the "baseball book".

 

[Baby Duck Homme]

Mike Trout is the Jake DeGrom of position players.

 

[Bob Richards]

DeGod still throwing 99 in the 9th

 

[RangersFan]

MVP! Seriously I'm usually on the side of the Cy Young is the Pitcher's MVP award debate but deGrom is clearly the MVP!

 

[sbjnyc]

29 IP 13 H 3 bb 50k 1 ER ... His whip is 0.55 and higher than his era.

 

[Adam Fox Time]

Yankees win

I don't know how the Yankees will turn out this season but I hope they win just to prove the (self-)haters wrong.

 

[sbjnyc]

 

[nyr2k2]

He has driven in more runs than earned runs allowed.

 

[Deleted member 23124]

He has driven in more runs than earned runs allowed.

Not hard to do with that ERA.

 

[mrmovies779]

Jake is a special player.dare i say it-a generational player.Even as a Yankees fan,i can see and appreciate his dominance.

 

[GoAwayGiannone]

Imagine they traded him away in 2018 to the Yankees for that in hindsight terrible package of Andujar, Frazier, Florial and I think Sheffield? I remember people throwing around something along those lines
