Dodgers News: Noah Syndergaard Not Worried About Down Velocity in First Start of the Spring

Dodgers pitcher Noah Syndergaard made his first appearance of the spring on Tuesday, throwing two shutout innings against the Reds with two strikeouts and one hit allowed. The thing everyone was most interested in, though, was his fastball velocity, which mostly sat at 91-92 MPH and topped out at 93.

Syndergaard has said his goal is to get back to throwing 100 MPH like he did before Tommy John surgery shut him down in 2020. Last year, he was mostly in the mid-90s with the Angels and Phillies in his first full season back from surgery.
