Syndergaard said Monday that he's working on his mechanics and keeping his body in shape with the hope that he'll find a team to sign with ahead of the 2025 season, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.
Syndergaard was cut loose by the Guardians last August after turning in a 5.40 ERA over six starts, but the right-hander evidently still believes he has enough left in the tank to contribute for an MLB club. Heyman notes that the 31-year-old Syndergaard is also hoping to lose some weight prior to the 2025 campaign, and he'll likely schedule a few open throwing sessions during the offseason to attract the attention of scouts. A one-time All-Star, Syndergaard has struggled to return to peak form since he underwent Tommy John surgery in March 2020.
