The New York Post awarded the New York Mets with the most obvious award the Mets could win for the soon to be ending decade. Jacob deGrom won Athlete of the Decade. I mean… who else in New York was going to win Athlete of the Decade?
Other Candidates For the Award
Derek Jeter retired in 2014, Mo in 2013, Davi Wright in 2018. There was absolutely no one else in New York who could’ve won the award from the Post. Let’s face it… no one on earth could be a back to back Cy Young award winner like Jacob deGrom.
