Noah Syndergaard has been a difficult topic for Blue Jays fans since he began dominating in New York. It only adds insult to injury that Syndergaard was traded for the disappointing R.A. Dickey. The trade with the Mets to add a Cy Young winner was supposed to bring the world series back to Canada. However, after a disappointing year of unfulfilled promises, the Blue Jays have seen little success as a result of the Alex Anthopoulos blockbuster.
After missing much of last year with a partially torn latissimus dorsi muscle (back), Syndergaard has returned to the dominant form he displayed in his All-Star caliber 2016.
