Set for sim game Friday DeGrom will throw about 90 pitches in a simulated game Friday as his final appearance of the spring, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

Impact This will allow the right-hander to get an extra day of rest prior to his Opening Day assignment while also preventing his first regular-season opponent, the Nationals, from getting an extra look at him in exhibition play. DeGrom will finish Grapefruit League play with a dazzling 0.66 ERA and 21:3 K:BB over 13.2 innings as he prepares to take a run at another Cy Young Award.

Strikes out six in four innings deGrom (2-0) went four innings in Tuesday's Grapefruit League outing against Houston, striking out six while allowing one run on two hits.

Impact It was yet another sharp outing for the Mets' ace, who surrendered his first run of the spring -- leaving him with a 1.00 ERA and 16 strikeouts through nine innings. The 32-year-old righty looks more than ready for Opening Day and is a lock to be one of the top two pitchers selected in this year's fantasy drafts.

In midseason form DeGrom struck out seven Astros over three perfect innings Thursday while topping out at 101 mph with his fastball, Anthony Rieber of Newsday reports.

Impact Spring radar gun readings aren't exactly reliable, but deGrom may as well have been hitting 120 mph for all the success Houston hitters had at the plate. The right-hander is lined up to take the mound for the Mets on Opening Day as he looks to capture his third Cy Young Award in four years, and Thursday's performance won't do anything to discourage fantasy GMs from selecting him early in the first round.
