5.40 ERA over six starts with the Guardians, enduring a lot of hard contact as he struggled locating his pitches. Quote: “It just feels like I’m pitching on ice skates,” Syndergaard said after a six-run start against the Reds on Aug. 16. “I feel like every time I try to use my legs, they slip out underneath me.” https://www.mlb.com/guardians/news/guardians-designate-for-assignment-noah-syndergaard


Cleveland is making room to bring back injured starter Cal Quantrill, expected September 1st. In the meantime they can call up a fresh reliever for the Minnesota series.

Syndergaard has given up 10 home in five August starts. Average velocity on the fastball, and gives up many stolen bases. He did fill a need, though.
