Fantasy Impact:
deGrom reportedly sat at 98-99 mph in the outing and came out of it issue-free. Despite his first live BP session of the spring coming on March 8, deGrom is expected to be ready for Opening Day. The superstar has been limited to just 26 starts over the last two seasons due to arm issues, including 11 starts of 3.08 ball with an eye-popping 42.7% K% across just 64 1/3 innings of work. When healthy, deGrom is the best pitcher in fantasy baseball but injuries continue to be a significant red flag.
