6-14-10 from: - http://www.minorleagueball.com/2010/6/13/1516247/new-york-mets-draft-review - 9) Jacob deGrom, RHP, Stetson: 90-93 MPH fastball, workable slider, athletic enough that he played shortstop at times. This one looks like an interesting sleeper pick that needs to be tracked closely. Walked just 16 in 82 innings.
7-9-10: - deGrom pitched an outstanding game last night against Bristol. He put up 5.0 quality innings, and gave up no runs and only five hits. Eleven balls ht were grounders and he struck out three while walking only one. Stats for the year so far: 3-G, 0-1, 3.86, 1.71, .415-BABIP, 3.31-FIP
