Jacob deGrom Set for Rangers Spring Debut Wednesday Against Brazil

Texas Rangers' ace Jacob deGrom is slated to make his first spring start Wednesday in an exhibition game against Team Brazil. The veteran right-hander has been gradually built up through bullpen sessions and live batting practices. Manager Skip Schumaker anticipates deGrom will make three or four appearances before camp concludes. In 2025, deGrom posted a 12-8 record with a 2.97 ERA, 0.92 WHIP, and 185:37 K:BB over 172.2 innings, his highest total since 2019, demonstrating his durability and effectiveness.
