Overview
- Kodai Senga (hamstring strain), Tylor Megill (elbow sprain) and Max Kranick (elbow strain) are sidelined on the injured list, depleting the Mets’ starting rotation for at least the next month.
- Frankie Montas’ 30-day rehab clock expires June 23, and he is slated to join the rotation early next week despite posting a 12.05 ERA over six minor league rehab starts.
- Sean Manaea is progressing through Triple-A rehab from an oblique injury and is expected back in the Mets’ rotation in roughly two weeks.
- Manager Carlos Mendoza recalled right-handers Justin Hagenman and Dedniel Núñez from Triple-A Syracuse and optioned Ty Adcock as the team seeks short-term rotation and bullpen depth.
- With the staff’s starter ERA still the best in MLB, the Mets are assessing potential pitching acquisitions ahead of the midseason trade deadline.
