Jacob deGrom is reportedly feeling "really good" after throwing a bullpen session on Friday. It's not official, but he's expected to start on Sunday. (Anthony DiComo on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

deGrom has a 0.57 WHIP with 59 strikeouts in 35 innings. He hasn't allowed more than one earned run in any start this season and hasn't pitched fewer than six innings in a single start either. His Statcast profile is insane; he ranks in the 97th-percentile or higher in xwOBA, xERA, xBA, K%, Whiff%, Chase Rate, and Fastball Velocity. The 32-year old will challenge his single-season career-high 9.0 WAR if he stays off the IL this season.
