An MLB insider has dismissed the possibility of a Jacob deGrom reunion with the New York Mets, even as the Texas Rangers confront a trade dilemma involving the two-time Cy Young Award winner. The report, dated November 9, 2026, indicates that Mets sources have ruled out bringing back the right-hander, who signed with Texas as a free agent before the 2023 season.
DeGrom, 38, has been limited by injuries since joining the Rangers, making just a handful of starts over multiple seasons. His contract situation and health status have placed Texas in a difficult position as the front office evaluates potential trade scenarios this offseason.
