TORONTO -- Noah Syndergaard still has time to make it back to the Mets before the All-Star break.
Syndergaard, who has been sidelined since May 25 due to a strained right index finger, is scheduled to begin a Minor League rehab assignment Sunday for Class A Short Season Brooklyn. Assuming he comes out of that 60-pitch outing with no issues, Syndergaard could return to the rotation in one of the Mets' final three games before the All-Star break, manager Mickey Callaway said.
"Obviously we'll see what he looked like in that outing, how he bounced back, how many pitches did he actually get in," Callaway said.
