Overview
- Tuesday reports from multiple outlets, citing The Athletic, say several teams have inquired about Senga during the opening day of MLB’s GM meetings in Las Vegas.
- Senga’s 2026 season split into two clear phases with eight starts that produced a 0-7 record and a 9.66 ERA before he moved to the bullpen.
- After the move he posted far better late-season relief numbers, recording eight saves and a much lower ERA in save situations while striking out 75 batters in 61 innings overall.
- Contract terms shape trade feasibility because Senga is owed roughly $14 million in 2027, the Mets hold a $15 million club option for 2028, and he can veto trades to 10 designated teams.
- The Mets see Senga as a likely movable piece as they try to reshape a volatile bullpen and free salary, though his preference to start and his limited no-trade rights could narrow the market and affect the return the team can get.
