Mets Draw Trade Calls on Kodai Senga as Offseason Pitching Plan Takes Shape

The club is weighing inquiries against plans to upgrade its rotation this winter.

Overview

  • Multiple teams have checked in on Senga as a buy-low target, according to The Athletic, though it is unclear how open New York is to a deal.
  • Senga is owed about $28 million over the next two seasons with a 2028 club option and holds a limited no-trade clause covering 10 teams.
  • After a hamstring injury in June, Senga’s 2025 season split sharply, from a 1.47 ERA over 13 games before the injury to a 5.90 ERA over 10 games upon return, leading to a September option to Triple-A Syracuse.
  • Despite the interest, reporting indicates the Mets have not shown strong interest in trading Senga while they discuss their group of starters.
  • New York is expected to pursue rotation help this offseason, with reporting suggesting the club could target two front-line starters and may need to subtract from its current mix to do so.
