DeGrom’s Struggles Avoid Braves Trade | Texas Rangers News

Jacob deGrom reportedly turned down a trade to the Braves to stay with the Rangers—maybe out of loyalty, maybe just to keep things familiar—but it looks like Atlanta dodged a bullet. DeGrom’s been in freefall lately, surrendering eight earned runs in one inning recently and posting a career-worst 4.21 ERA. He’s allowed six or more runs in four games this season—a stark contrast to his dominant years from 2018-2019 when he won two Cy Youngs. Now hitters are crushing him at nearly .300, and he’s barely lasting five innings. DeGrom admits he’s struggling to get outs, falling behind batters and walking too many. The Rangers, despite their big payroll, still look playoff-bound, while the Braves can breathe easy knowing they didn’t land him. His next shot? A start against the Athletics next Monday.
