New York Mets starting pitcher Kodai Senga is expected to open the regular season in the big-league rotation, according to president of baseball operations David Stearns. "I certainly expect Kodai to be a member of our rotation," Stearns told team reporter Andy Martino during an interview on the Mets' YouTube channel. "He's had a really strong offseason." The Mets believe that Senga is in great shape and should earn a spot in the starting rotation following spring training. That's a shift in the narrative from last fall, when the Mets sent Senga to Triple-A, and rumors swirled about a potential offseason trade. The right-hander pitched to a dominant 2.98 ERA and 3.4 fWAR during his first season stateside in 2023, and while his ERA was similar last year, his xFIP soared to 4.35. He also posted 8.66 K/9, 4.37 BB/9, and a 46.6% ground ball rate across 22 starts in 2025. It's worth noting that Stearns' comments about Senga joining the rotation were made right before the Mets acquired Freddy Peralta. However, Senga still has a strong chance to crack the Opening Day roster, especially if New York opens the year with a six-man rotation.--Andersen Pickard
