Noah Syndergaard shocked how long he has been out
Noah SyndergaardDENVER — Noah Syndergaard was mildly surprised to learn that Friday will mark one month since he last pitched for the Mets.
“Jesus, has it been that long?” the right-hander said Wednesday before the Mets’ 10-8 loss to the Rockies at Coors Field. “It seems like it has been a while, but it still seems like yesterday I was in Milwaukee throwing.”
A strained ligament in his right index finger that was initially supposed to cost Syndergaard only one start has lingered longer than he could have imagined. Slowly, he is working to return, trying to ensure the soreness does not return.
