Right-handed ace Noah Syndergaard has agreed to a one-year, $21 million contract with the Angels, according to ESPN's Jeff Passan.
Before hitting free agency, it was widely speculated that Noah Syndergaard would accept the qualifying offer from the Mets worth $18.4 million. A strong starting pitching market put his situation into flux, and now, he is reportedly heading out West.
Los Angeles adds a pitcher with incredible potential when healthy, but one who has just two innings under his belt since the 2019 season. After a disappointing 2019 with the Mets, Syndergaard suffered a torn UCL that required Tommy John surgery in March 2020 and ended his season
In late May 2021, he was shut down again after dealing with inflammation in his right elbow after a rehab start.
