Kodai Senga Named Mets Playoff Starter
Kodai Senga has been named the New York Mets' starting pitcher for Game 1 of the National League Division Series against the Philadelphia Phillies, after recovering from a calf injury that sidelined him since late July. Despite only making one start this season due to previous shoulder and triceps injuries, Senga expressed his readiness to pitch as long as needed, stating, "If they say 10 pitches, I’m all in for 10 pitches. If they say 200, I’m in for 200." Mets manager Carlos Mendoza acknowledged the uncertainty around Senga's pitch count but emphasized confidence in his readiness. The decision comes after the Mets' dramatic wild card victory over the Milwaukee Brewers, which showcased their resilience following a tough regular season. Senga's return adds depth to the Mets' pitching lineup as they face the NL East champions in a crucial playoff matchup. Mendoza noted that Senga's proactive communication about his health played a significant role in the decision to start him in such an important game.
