Mets righty Noah Syndergaard doesn’t need elbow surgery

Noah Syndergaard will not need surgery for the bone spur in his right elbow, Mets GM Sandy Alderson told reporters Monday.

It’s like Christmas in October! Well not really, but two bits of good injury news in rapid succession for the Mets counts for something.

First, we found out Asdrubal Cabrera won’t need knee surgery. Now, Syndergaard is free and clear.

Syndergaard pitched through the issue for most of the season but it only seemed to really hamper him on a few occasions. And he finished the season incredibly well, allowing two earned runs or less in seven of his last eight regular season starts.
