Kodai Senga Nears Return to Mets After Dominant Rehab Start

Senga's recovery progresses with a strong performance; Jose Quintana celebrates first Fourth of July as a U.S. citizen.

Senga struck out six in 2 2/3 hitless innings during his first rehab outing with High-A Brooklyn.
The right-hander is scheduled for a bullpen session and a Triple-A start before potentially rejoining the Mets post-All-Star break.
Senga's recovery follows a prolonged absence due to a strained posterior capsule in his right shoulder.
Jose Quintana marked his first Independence Day as an American citizen, pitching seven scoreless innings against the Nationals.
The Mets, currently at .500, anticipate Senga's return to bolster their rotation and playoff hopes.
