When Will the Mets Call Up Noah Syndergarrd this season?

When the Mets traded RA Dickey to the Blue Jays, it was thought that Travis d'Arnaud was going to be the main part of the deal. On the other hand, so far starting pitcher Noah Syndergarrd has appeared to possibly turn out to be the key member of the trade. Last year between St. Lucie and Binghamton, he posted a 3.06 ERA, had a. 1.15 WHIP and a 133:28 K:BB ratio. His fastball tops out between 96-98 mph. He is working on improving his changeup and curveball to go along with his fastball. He has also worked on improving his command. Once Syndergarrd develops secondary pitches and has more command, he has the potential to be a top of the rotation starter. The Mets could have a possible starting rotation in 2015 of Matt Harvey, Zach Wheeler, and Syndergarrd as their top 3 starters. I think that the Mets will follow the same approach that they had with Harvey and Wheeler, and call up Syndgergarrd in either June or July.
