Kodai Senga to Begin Rehab Assignment on Friday
New York Mets right-hander Kodai Senga (back), who is on the 15-day injured list with lumbar-spine inflammation, will start a minor-league rehab assignment on Friday with Single-A St. Lucie, according to Anthony DiComo of MLB.com. Senga figures to have a lengthy rehab assignment after allowing 21 runs (20 earned) on 26 hits (five home runs) while walking 13 and striking out 23 in 20 innings across his first five starts with the Mets this year. He lost four of those five starts. The 33-year-old Japanese native was an All-Star in 2023 in his first year in the big leagues, but he made just one start the following season due to an injury, and he struggled late in 2025 and was eventually optioned to the minors to work on his mechanics. Things haven't started well for him in 2026 in his fourth year with the Mets, but if he can get past his back injury, he should have a spot in the Mets' banged-up rotation at some point in June. Fantasy managers in mixed leagues should be taking a wait-and-see approach. Senga is rostered in only 13% of Yahoo leagues at the moment.
