Syndergaard (lat) says he's feeling good but isn't close to throwing a baseball, Zachary Ripple of The New York Daily News reports. "Lats are tricky, just because it's very specific," Syndergaard said Thursday. "If you come back too soon, you could really put yourself in a situation to injure yourself again."
There's still no timetable yet for when he'll be able to begin a throwing program, but the original six-week estimate would have Syndergaard tossing a baseball in the second half of June, so as yet he's not behind schedule. Expect the Mets to remain cautious with their ace, especially if the team is well out of a playoff spot heading towards the All-Star break.
