This week, reports came out that New York Mets right-hander Noah Syndergaard had a private conversation with general manager Brodie Van Wagenen. The reports stated that Thor was “livid,” with the conversation having to do with throwing to catcher Wilson Ramos. Apparently, Syndergaard prefers to pitch with Tomas Nido or René Rivera behind the plate.
After the fact, Van Wagenen denied that there was any sort of rift between Syndergaard and the team. And now, Thor is disputing the fact that he was “livid” within the conversation.
