Jacob deGrom says a shared vision led to him signing with the Texas Rangers in free agency.
\"The Rangers did a great job with constant communication and making me feel like they really wanted me here,\" deGrom said. \"The vision was the same: build something great, and win year in and year out.\"
Looking to turn around recent fortunes, the Rangers inked deGrom to a five-year, $185 million deal. The pitcher spent the first nine years of his career with the New York Mets.
\"They showed a ton of interest right at the start, and the feelings were mutual,\" deGrom said of the Rangers. \"I want to play this game for a long time and want to win.\"
