Noah Syndergaard will get the ball tonight as his New York Mets welcome in James Shields and the San Diego Padres to Citi Field.
What a difference a week makes. Suddenly, after the acquisitions of Juan Uribe, Kelly Johnson and Tyler Clippard, the New York Mets feel rejuvenated. They’ll look to keep a short two game winning streak alive tonight as they welcome in the San Diego Padres.
Noah Syndergaard (4-5, 2.97 ERA) will matchup with James Shields (8-3, 3.77 ERA).
