Syndergaard puts his talent and weakness on full dispay

Noah SyndergaardMIAMI — Noah Syndergaard can deal, but opponents continue to steal.
The Mets right-hander is in the midst of a solid, yet abbreviated season — two trips to the disabled list have limited his work — but his ascent to greatness might hinge on figuring out how to contain base runners.
On Sunday, the Marlins stole three bases against him and watched two of those runners score on subsequent singles. But the Mets received just enough offensive spark in a 4-3 victory at Marlins Park that marked a second straight series win. The Mets’ last consecutive series wins came in April, when the team improved to 12-2.
