Syndergaard (2-0) continued his masterful start to the season Monday, tossing seven innings of one-run ball in a win against the Phillies. He allowed five hits, walked two and struck out eight.
Syndergaard has been borderline untouchable this season, allowing just 15 hits in 20 innings while striking out 29 compared to just four walks. The young righty's strikeouts are no fluke, as he fanned more than a batter per inning a a rookie last year, and it truly looks like Syndergaard is developing into one of the most dominant pitchers in baseball. His next start will come Sunday against the Braves.
