The Mets extended a qualifying offer to Syndergaard on Saturday, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.

Per Deesha Thosar of the New York Daily News, Syndergaard said in September that he would be extremely grateful to receive the qualifying offer and was confident he'd stay in Queens. If Syndergaard is getting strong multi-year offers from other teams, he'll likely decline the one-year, $18.4 million qualifying offer and let all 30 teams compete for his services.
