Timeline

1988

Jacob Anthony deGrom (born June 19, 1988) is an American professional baseball pitcher for the Texas Rangers of Major League Baseball (MLB).

He has previously played in MLB for the New York Mets.

Prior to playing professionally, deGrom attended Stetson University and played college baseball for the Stetson Hatters.

DeGrom began playing baseball as a shortstop and was converted into a pitcher during his junior year at Stetson.

Jacob Anthony DeGrom was born on June 19, 1988, in DeLand, Florida.

DeGrom attended Calvary Christian Academy, a small school in Ormond Beach, Florida, where he played for the school's baseball and basketball teams.

As a basketball player, he was voted the District 9 Class 1A player of the year by the Florida Athletic Coaches Association and selected to the all-state third team for Class 1A.

As a senior baseball player the Florida Sports Writers Association named deGrom to the All-Florida second team.

He also played American Legion baseball, where he was noticed by the coaches for the Stetson Hatters, the college baseball team of Stetson University.

After not being selected in the Major League Baseball draft out of high school, deGrom enrolled at Stetson and played for the Hatters.

He was exclusively a shortstop during his freshman and sophomore seasons.

Though he was considered a good fielder with a strong throwing arm, deGrom was a light hitter with a career .263 batting average.

2009

He made his first appearance as a pitcher in May 2009.

In the summer of 2009, between his sophomore and junior years, deGrom received an invitation to play collegiate summer baseball for the DeLand Suns of the Florida Collegiate Summer League, which he declined after discovering that they wanted him to play as a pitcher.

When deGrom returned to Stetson that fall, the team used him as a relief pitcher, filling the role of their closer, in addition to playing shortstop.

He quickly became one of Stetson's best pitchers, so the team moved deGrom into their starting rotation midway through the season.

In addition to a fastball, deGrom learned to throw a changeup and a slider.

Major league scouts began to take notice of deGrom when he pitched against Chris Sale of Florida Gulf Coast University.

In the game deGrom hit his only home run of the season against Chris Sale.

He made 12 starts for the Hatters, pitching to a 4–5 win–loss record with a 4.48 earned run average.

2010

The New York Mets selected deGrom in the ninth round as a pitcher, with the 272nd overall selection, of the 2010 Major League Baseball draft.

He signed with the Mets, receiving a $95,000 signing bonus.

The Mets assigned deGrom to the Kingsport Mets of the rookie-level Appalachian League where he made six starts before he was diagnosed with a partial tear of the ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) in his pitching elbow.

He attempted to rehabilitate his arm for four months, but underwent Tommy John surgery to repair the UCL in October.

2011

He did not pitch in 2011 while he recovered from the surgery.

While rehabilitating, deGrom worked on his changeup with Johan Santana.

2012

DeGrom pitched for the Savannah Sand Gnats of the Class A South Atlantic League and the St. Lucie Mets of the Class A-Advanced Florida State League in 2012, finishing the year with a 2.43 earned run average in 19 games started.

2013

In 2013, he began the season with St. Lucie, but was promoted to the Binghamton Mets of the Class AA Eastern League after two starts due to injuries to Binghamton's Luis Mateo and Cory Mazzoni.

He received a promotion to the Las Vegas 51s of the Class AAA Pacific Coast League in June after the Mets promoted Zack Wheeler and Carlos Torres to the major leagues and traded Collin McHugh.

He had a combined 4.51 earned run average for the season, due to a broken finger suffered during the offseason, which altered the way he threw the ball.

The Mets added deGrom to their 40-man roster on November 20, 2013, to protect him from being eligible in the Rule 5 draft.

During the offseason, deGrom improved his mechanics, and learned to throw a curveball.

2014

The Mets selected him in the ninth round of the 2010 MLB draft, and he made his major league debut with the Mets on May 15, 2014.

In the same year, deGrom was named the National League's (NL) Rookie of the Month twice, and the NL Rookie of the Year.

He began the 2014 season with Las Vegas, and had a 4–0 win–loss record and a 2.58 earned run average in his first seven games started.

The Mets promoted deGrom to the major leagues on May 12, 2014, after Gonzalez Germen was placed on the disabled list.

2015

In 2015, 2018, 2019, and 2021 deGrom was selected as an MLB All-Star.
