FACTS/FLUKES: deGrom, Kennedy, Ozuna, Polanco, Reynolds

deGrom confirming ace status ... Jacob deGrom (RHP, NYM) hit the ground running upon his promotion in May of 2014, on his way to NL Rookie of the Year honors. He's been dominant again in 2015, and despite a mediocre minor league track record, continues to look like a front-line starter.
