Reports Say Mets Have Kodai Senga 'Extremely Available' in Trade Talks

His modest two-year, $28 million deal and a boom-and-bust 2025 have created both interest and a decision point for New York.

Overview

  • ESPN’s Jeff Passan reports Senga is considered “extremely available,” with multiple executives expecting a trade this winter.
  • Reports describe the Mets as shopping the right-hander as they look to overhaul their rotation following a missed postseason.
  • Senga is under contract for two years at $28 million guaranteed, making him a cost-conscious target for rotation-needy clubs.
  • The Orioles, Cubs, Red Sox, Blue Jays, and Padres are cited as logical suitors given their pursuit of starting pitching.
  • He opened 2025 with a 1.39 ERA into mid-June before a hamstring injury, then returned with diminished effectiveness, finished at a 3.02 ERA, and was sent to Triple-A.
