NO NOAH
The Angels could have used right-hander Noah Syndergaard to face the New York Mets, his former team, on Sunday in the nationally televised finale of this weekend’s series.
Instead, they are using Monday’s day off to give him two extra days of rest before he faces the Dodgers on Tuesday at Dodger Stadium.
Nevin said Syndergaard is fine physically, but the Angels want to take the opportunity to give him some more rest. Syndergaard has pitched just two innings in the past two seasons because of Tommy John surgery. He’s already at 46-1/3 innings this season.
