Born Today Tom Seaver. Happy Birthday Val Pascucci and Seth Lugo.
On the morning of 11/17/2021, Mets fans were waking up to the news that Noah Syndergaard had left the Mets to sign a one year $21 million deal with the Los Angeles Angels. Noah turned down the Mets Qualifying Offer of $18.4 million.
After having Tommy John Surgery in 2020, Syndergaard had a tough road back, throwing just two innings for the Mets in 2021.
He was 5-8 with a 3.85 ERA for the Angels in 2022 finishing the season with the Phillies in 10 games (5-2, 4.17 ERA) plus 3 games in the 2022 post season.
The Mets received the 75th pick in the 2022 draft as compensation choosing Nick Morabito.
