PORT ST. LUCIE — Bill Gates could use a few more dollars, too.
But here was Noah Syndergaard reporting to spring training on Sunday for the Mets, stating there is room for improvement within his assortment of heat.
“I always want to throw harder and continue to make the game easier,” said Syndergaard, whose 98-mph average on his fastball was tops in the major leagues last year. “I feel like last year from my rookie season, my velocity jumped up, so I’m always going to try to raise that kind of bar, and hopefully it allows me to go deeper into games with more ease.
