2021 Fantasy Outlook
DeGrom nearly pulled off the Cy Young three-peat, posting a sub-2.50 ERA for the third straight year and once again finishing as a finalist in the National League. He ultimately placed third in the voting, but he would have been a worthy winner, with the only real knock being one-and-a-half missed starts due to neck and hamstring issues. The right-hander dialed his fastball up a tick to 98.6 mph on average and saw a corresponding increase in strikeout rate to a career-high 38.8%. His previous high was 32.2% set in 2018. It's worth noting that his opponents' barrel rate and average exit velocity jumped to 9.6% and 88.2 mph, respectively, up from 5.0% and 86.5 mph in 2019. Further, the velocity spike could be seen as slightly worrying given they are sometimes a precursor to injury. These are relatively minor factors to consider when splitting hairs in the first round of 2021 fantasy drafts. Read Past Outlooks

Reaches century mark in Ks
DeGrom didn't factor into the decision in the first game of Saturday's doubleheader, giving up three runs on five hits and two walks over five innings. He struck out 10.
ANALYSIS
It's the fifth time in 12 starts deGrom has fanned 10 or more batters. The right-hander put together another Cy Young-worthy campaign in 2020, posting a 2.38 ERA, 0.96 WHIP and 104:18 K:BB through 68 innings, but a lack of consistent run support from the Mets left him with only four wins.

For the second straight season, deGrom won the National League Cy Young Award. Remarkably, he's won just 21 games over that span, but his pristine ratios have properly swayed the voters to do the right thing. Like all great pitchers, deGrom constantly adapts. His fastball velocity ticked up for the fourth consecutive campaign, so deGrom threw it a little more. He also increased slider usage while cutting back on his curve and bagging the sinker. The result was a 26.2 K-BB%, fourth best in the league. The main difference between 2019 and the previous season was deGrom's home-run rate doubled, accounting for the bump in ERA to 2.43 after a 1.70 mark in 2018. With Max Scherzer's health a concern, deGrom is a candidate to be the first pitcher off the board, along with Gerrit Cole and Justin Verlander. If wins weren't still an issue, deGrom would likely be the consensus top pick among hurlers.
