Mets' Kodai Senga Nears Return After Dominant Rehab Outings

The right-hander has excelled in minor league starts as he recovers from a shoulder injury, with a potential MLB return after the All-Star break.

Senga pitched 2 2/3 scoreless innings in his second Triple-A rehab start, allowing two hits and striking out three.
He has been out since early spring training with a right shoulder capsule strain.
Team officials have not set a specific number of rehab starts before his MLB return but aim for post-All-Star break.
The Mets plan to use a six-man rotation upon Senga's return, though this may occasionally change.
Senga had an impressive rookie season in 2023, finishing with a 2.98 ERA and 202 strikeouts.
