Two-time Cy Young Award winner Jacob deGrom has already thrown off the mound this offseason and says everything feels normal. He missed most of his first two seasons with the Texas Rangers because of elbow surgery. The 36-year-old DeGrom says making three starts last September helped him treat it like a normal offseason instead of feeling like he was still in rehab mode. DeGrom has started only nine games for the Rangers since signing a $185 million, five-year contract in free agency two winters ago.
