I've never done this before. Do I have to fill out a form or send $3 a month to a creepy bearded guy in sandals walking around a third-world country?

That was funny and guilt-inducing all at once.

From a recent Baseball America review of the Blue Jays system:

Some pretty good praise from prospect guru John Sickels at his site - and that piece provides an additional link to a brief interview and film clips done by 'Metsminorleagueblog.com' http://www.minorleagueball.com/2013/2/2 ... -york-mets

Looking for a big year from Noah here...

From Rubin on his ESPN blog The 20-year-old Syndergaard made his official Mets debut Sunday. He tossed four scoreless innings for Class A St. Lucie, allowing three hits and a walk while striking out five at Jupiter. He sports a fastball that sits at 94-95 mph as well as a solid curveball and changeup. “My first inning was a little shaky,” Syndergaard said. “I just had a little pregame jitters. Once I settled down, in the second, third and fourth inning, I felt a lot more comfortable on the mound. I’m always nervous before a game until the first pitch is thrown, but being with a new team and a new organization, even being at a higher level, I had a little bit more anxiousness.” Syndergaard tossed only four innings because he was slowed during spring training by a lat muscle pull and has not yet fully ramped up for a starter’s workload. He should be permitted to go five innings Saturday at Bradenton, in his second regular-season start. “The second bullpen of the year I felt a little something in my lat. It turned out it was just a little pull,” Syndergaard said. “I’m back at it now, and I think I’m at full strength.” : Later

Syndergaard went six innings last night vs. the Charlotte Stone Crabs, giving up just one unearned run and three hits, walking two and striking out four. He left with the score tied 1-1, but the bullpen gave up single runs in the eighth and ninth in a 3-2 loss.

My man Noah went seven against Palm Beach, allowing 1 ER, 4 H, 1 BB and 7 K. His ERA dropped to 1.61 as a bunch of other people's adoptees and miscellaneous non-prospects piled up the runs in a 17-1 victory. Hail St. Lucie, may your strip malls grow and prosper.

That's Noah Syndergaard, winning pitcher in the FSL All-Star Game.

We'll be seeing my guy Noah in the Futures Game, per Joel Sherman.

From a Q&A in BA --How does Noah Syndergaard compare to Zach Wheeler? Can we expect a similar time table next year? -- Jim Callis: Wheeler is about two years older than Syndergaard. At the same stage, Wheeler had better stuff while Syndergaard had more polish. Syndergaard has quality stuff, too, and I could see him beginning 2014 in Triple-A and reaching New York later in the year.

Good week for NYM prospects, Noah Syndergaard checks in at #9 in BA's 'Hot List' for the week. Why He’s Here: 1-0, 0.00, 9 IP, 9 H, 3 R, 0 ER, 1 HR, 10 SO, 1 BB The Scoop: Syndergaard threw just two innings on Thursday, not because of ineffectiveness or injury but because he’s probably going to start Sunday’s Futures Game at Citi Field. He was plenty good in his full-share start last Saturday, working seven innings and allowing three runs while striking out seven and walking one. Syndergaard has responded positively to his promotion to Double-A, notching 26 strikeouts, four walks and 18 hits allowed in 20 innings, pushing his career K-BB ratio to 3.9. And from the Q&A on the list: Q - How has Noah Syndergaard made the transition to AA look so easy? A - He seems to have that scary ability to control a double-plus fastball, which goes a long way against minor league competition. In some ways Syndergaard’s ascension is reminiscent of Zack Wheeler when he was at Double-A last year in that he gets a ton of swings and misses on the fastball and that he can work deep into games because of his pitch efficiency. I don’t want to say that Sydergaard’s fastball has the same late explosion that Wheeler’s does, but he compensates with better feel for a second pitch (changeup).

No problem with Noah's choice of fine dining - we saw him at Foley's yesterday -

Last two starts. Mon vs. Albuquerque: 7 IP, 0 R, 2 H, 0 BB, 9 K Sat vs. Reno: 7 IP, 0 R, 4 H, 2 BB, 10 K That's 26 Ks and 8 walks in 21 2/3 innings on the season.

PCL Pitcher of the Week. That's what you get for waiting until the game is over to hit the clubhouse spread.
