Reports Point to Mets Seeking Trade of Kodai Senga at Winter Meetings

A late-season slide alongside two years at roughly $30 million shapes his market.

Overview

  • USA Today’s Bob Nightengale reports the Mets want to move on from Kodai Senga as they rework the rotation.
  • Bleacher Report’s Kerry Miller predicts a trade by the end of the Winter Meetings, noting two years and about $30 million remain on Senga’s deal.
  • Senga’s performance dipped after a hamstring injury, including a 6.56 ERA, elevated walks, and a demotion to Triple-A in the second half.
  • The Athletic’s Will Sammon has reported Senga prefers to stay with New York, though the decision lies with the club.
  • Coverage indicates a deal could help the Mets pursue pitching upgrades and either add outfield depth or open a rotation spot for a younger arm.
