New York Mets SP Noah Syndergaard joins the Tommy John club

Unfortunately, the human arm wasn’t meant to throw 100 mph fastballs. New York Mets starter Noah Syndergaard learned this the hard way.

“The human arm, elbow, etc. was not made to do what they do.”

That’s the analysis of New York Mets right-hander Noah Syndergaard from a long-time big league scout. Last week it was the Chris Sale of the Boston Red Sox, now Syndergaard. Tommy John surgery, that has become a norm for those who throw hard fastballs, sliders, and other secondary pitches.

But, Mets fans, they don’t want to hear the analysis.
