SURPRISE, Ariz. — The Rangers reached the mid-point of spring training on Wednesday. And Jacob deGrom seemed to “turn a corner,” manager Bruce Bochy said.
He took it at 100 mph.
During a 35-pitch, 2-inning live batting practice session, deGrom sat at 98-99 mph with his fastball and hit 100 on his final pitch of the first inning to Yoshi Tsutsugo. He threw all his pitches and was pleased with a 90 mph change-up, as well as the fastball.
