MLB Rumors: The New York Mets should not re-sign Jacob deGrom, according to Jon Heyman — at least, not for what Heyman expects deGrom will be seeking in a new deal.
deGrom, the 34 year old Mets ace who has been great when he has been healthy, but who has struggled to stay on the mound, is set to opt out of his deal and hit the free agent market once the World Series is over. The numbers Heyman says he heard from three agents were 3-5 years at $40-45M per, which Heyman says the Mets should pass on.
