Mets Place Kodai Senga on Injured List With Spine Inflammation
The New York Mets announced on Tuesday that they placed right-hander Kodai Senga (back) on the 15-day injured list (retroactive to April 27) with lumbar-spine inflammation and recalled right-hander Christian Scott from Triple-A Syracuse in a corresponding move. Senga received an epidural injection and will be shut down from throwing for at least a week to 10 days. The 33-year-old veteran began to struggle in the second half of last season and was eventually sent to the minors to work on things. The Japanese native's struggles have carried over to the early portion of 2026, and now he's injured. In his first five starts for the Mets this season, Senga has gone 0-4 with a 9.00 ERA, 1.95 WHIP, and 23:13 K:BB in 20 innings pitched. He only made it 2 2/3 frames in his last start on Sunday against the Colorado Rockies. Fantasy managers in mixed leagues can dump Senga if they haven't done so already. He's currently rostered in just 20% of Yahoo leagues, and he may not have a rotation spot waiting for him in New York when he's reinstated from the IL.
