Well, get used to reading this every time that our star prospect Noah Syndergaard takes the mound — he tossed five shutout innings. Since the Mets are running him out there with a hand over his innings work now, the intent is to keep his pitching schedule regular but his in-game work limited. He’ll still toss his bullpen sessions and his general workouts, so there’s no big reason to worry.

Factoring in the fact that Syndergaard will pitch through the playoffs, he will likely see about a jump of 30 innings or so. He should see around five innings of work each time out there, by the way.

In any case, back to Syndergaard’s excellent work again. For the second straight start, he permitted just two hits and a walk through five innings and allowed no earned runs. The only difference this time around was that he struck out five batters. So his final line was 5.0 IP, 2 H, 1 BB, 0 ER, 5 K.

Keep it up, you future ace…
