Kodai Senga Shut Down For 3-5 Days
6 months agoNew York Mets right-hander Kodai Senga (shoulder, triceps) will be shut down for three to five days. He was scheduled to throw a bullpen session on Friday, but that was shut down due to inflammation in his triceps area. Senga played light catch on Tuesday but apparently had yet another setback as he tries to return from a right posterior shoulder capsule strain. The 31-year-old starter has been sidelined since spring training and will now be pushed back a little longer. Senga had his scheduled bullpen session last Sunday pushed back due to right-triceps tightness. We'll have to wait and see if Senga can get back on a mound again after the next three to five days. If he can't, there's a chance we may not see him until after the All-Star break. UPDATE: Senga received a cortisone injection after an MRI exam showed inflammation in his triceps.
