Syndergaard will serve as the team's opening pitcher in Sunday's season finale in Atlanta, Anthony Rieber of Newsday reports.
As he did Tuesday against the Marlins in his 2021 debut, Syndergaard is expected to be limited to one inning in the opener role. Manager Luis Rojas hasn't revealed which bulk reliever the team will deploy behind Syndergaard, or if the Mets will treat the season finale as a bullpen day. Sunday's outing could be Syndergaard's last with New York, as he's set to become an unrestricted free agent this winter.
