Senga Rehab Start: Mets See Progress
13 Jun
Summary
- Kodai Senga showed encouraging signs in his latest rehab start.
- Francisco Lindor is expected to return to the lineup later this month.
- Tobias Myers will be recalled but not as a starter.
Kodai Senga's return to the Mets rotation is drawing nearer after an encouraging six-inning rehab start where he allowed just one hit. Manager Carlos Mendoza described the outing as positive, noting Senga's effectiveness in the strike zone. The team plans for Senga to have at least one more minor league bullpen session.
The club is also anticipating the return of shortstop Francisco Lindor, who is working back from a left calf strain. Lindor has been taking ground balls and facing live pitching in simulated games at Citi Field.
In other roster news, pitcher Tobias Myers is expected to be recalled from Triple-A next week, though he will serve as a reliever, not a starter, as the team works to manage starting pitching depth. The Mets continue to assess their bullpen for Saturday's starter.
