Before their spring training game today, the Mets provided an update on right-handed pitcher Kodai Senga, saying that the team’s ace received a PRP injection in his injured shoulder and will not throw for three weeks. From there, the team will determine whether or not Senga is healthy, and if and when he is, he’ll begin his own personal six-week spring training program.
With Opening Day just four-and-a-half weeks away, Senga will clearly miss the first month of the season even if all goes smoothly. In his absence, the Mets have a variety of similar internal options.
