The Mets announced Sunday that Noah Syndergaard is headed to the 10-day disabled list with hand, foot and mouth disease.
The condition is a virus common in children and is not serious. Given the Mets' poor injury history, fans have taken to Twitter in droves to roast the team over its latest setback. Take a look at some of the best Twitter has to offer in reaction to Syndergaard's baffling diagnosis.
Syndergaard to the DL with hand, foot, and mouth disease has proven my assertion that Citi Field was built on an ancient Indian burial ground. God is very angry with the Mets. ☠️
