The Mets have recently discussed moving Syndergaard to the bullpen and calling up Steven Matz, Mike Puma of the NY Post reports.

Analysis:

Syndergaard would be used to set up Jeurys Familia while Matz would slide into Syndergaard's rotation spot. The Mets have struggled to find a bridge to Familia and Syndergaard's high-90s fastball and 'hook from hell,' could fill that spot. This is far from a done deal and Syndergaard does profile as a starting pitcher, so view this as an outside possibility for the time being.
