Mets RHP Noah Syndergaard said he wouldn't be where he is without pitching coach Dan Warthen, adding that it would be in the "best interest" of the team and pitching staff if Warthen was back next season.
"He's got so much knowledge and wisdom when it comes to pitching and just life in general," Syndergaard said. "He's a pitching coach, a great pitching coach, but he's also been a great mentor. I can come to him with anything I have personal in my life, and he has the best advice to give me. I really think it would be in our best interest as a team and as a pitching staff to have him back next year.
