Kodai Senga Placed On The 15-Day Injured List
4 months agoNew York Mets starting pitcher Kodai Senga (calf) was placed on the 15-day injured list on Saturday, July 27, with a left calf strain. The 31-year-old was sidelined for the first four months of the 2024 season due to a shoulder and triceps injury and now will return to the IL after making his first start of the season. On Friday, Senga looked sharp as he logged five ⅓ innings of two-run ball with nine punchouts. Unfortunately, he left the game early in the sixth inning due to a calf injury. In a corresponding move, the Mets recalled right-handed pitcher Tylor Megill from Triple-A Syracuse. Megill should be expected to rejoin the starting rotation for the time being. Senga should remain stashed on your injured reserve as he could return rather quickly depending on the extent of the injury. Megill could be worth a speculative add in deeper NL-only formats as he posted a modest 5.08 ERA and 1.44 WHIP across eight starts earlier this summer.
