Mets pitcher Noah Syndergaard will be shut down for about a week, after suffering a sprained A/C joint in his non-throwing shoulder, the team announced Friday.
Syndergaard suffered the injury during Thursday's game for Triple-A Las Vegas, when he collided with a baserunner. He had X-rays and an MRI taken on the shoulder, which revealed no structural damage beyond the sprain. He will resume throwing after 5-7 days of rest.
