Jacob deGrom has a lot of strikeouts. After his game against the Cubs, the New York Mets ace had 955 for his career. Earlier this season he passed Jon Niese for 9th most strikeouts in franchise history and he looks to climb up the ladder even more.
He won’t be able to pass anyone this year with only a few starts left but next year there will be many for Mets stars he can reach.
First we have to talk about Jakes 1000th strikeout. It’s possible that he can reach the milestone this season. He only needs 45 more and if everything goes according to plan, he should have roughly six more starts.
