deGrom won't be on the same team as his former Mets brethren on Tuesday when he suits up for the All-Star Game. But he did get the opportunity to reflect on his tenure and what it means to reconnect in his third season away from the Big Apple.

Baseball’s midsummer classic is set for Tuesday night. If you want to make a Texas Rangers sighting during the All-Star Game, you will have to look fast when the camera pans to the American League dugout.

He was expected to be the ace of a pitching staff that would carry the team deep into the 2023 playoffs. Instead, he spent most of the year on the injured list and watched from the dugout as the Rangers won the first World Seirs championship in franchise history.

Jacob deGrom is an All-Star ace again after several injury-filled seasons. This is his fifth All-Star nod, his first for the Texas Rangers and in the American League.

Grom, like many top players, has a litany of performance bonuses built into his contract, according to Spotrac.
