The New York Mets and Toronto Blue Jays are reportedly considering trade interest in Texas Rangers starting pitcher Jacob deGrom this offseason. Facing a second consecutive year without a playoff berth, the Mets are looking to bolster a rotation that features young starters Nolan McLean, Zac Thornton, and Jonah Tong.

Any potential deal for the veteran pitcher would require his approval due to the full no-trade clause in his contract. Meanwhile, the Blue Jays remain in contention for a Wild Card spot and may look to pair deGrom with Dylan Cease to strengthen their starting staff for the upcoming season.
