MLB free agent rumors: Noah Syndergaard and the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim have agreed to a one year deal worth $21 million, according to Jeff Passan on Twitter.
Syndergaard, a 29 year old righthander, was expected to accept the $18.4 million qualifying offer tendered to him by the New York Mets, given that he missed all of 2020 and most of 2021 due to Tommy John surgery. Syndergaard logged just eight innings over five games between the minors and majors in 2021 in his return from TJS, and the thought was that he would take the one year deal, show he was healthy, and re-enter the market after 2022.
