Noah Syndergaard will make his long-awaited return for the Mets this evening, as he is slated to start the second game of the team’s doubleheader with the Marlins. He has not thrown a pitch in a major league game since starting the final game of the 2019 season against the Braves. The club designated catcher Chance Sisco for assignment to make room for Syndergaard on the 40-man roster.
Syndergaard missed the entire 2020 season and almost all of the 2021 campaign after undergoing Tommy John surgery in March of 2020.
