Syndergaard: Bone Spur ‘Pretty Insignificant’

WASHINGTON (CBSNewYork/AP) — New York Mets pitcher Noah Syndergaard cleared up some questions about the status of his elbow, acknowledging Wednesday he has a bone spur but calling it “pretty insignificant.”

“(I can) pitch through it with no pain. I’ll be ready to go in five days,” he said before New York’s game against the Washington Nationals.

Syndergaard said he’s being treated with medication.

“As long as I’m staying on my anti-inflammatories, and my mechanics are on point, I’m able to go out there every five days and compete,” he said.

Syndergaard told Boomer & Carton Wednesday morning that there is no structural damage to his elbow.
