Kodai Senga's MLB Return Delayed After Rocky Triple-A Outing, Citing Unreadiness

New York Mets right-hander Kodai Senga's anticipated return to the major league level has hit a significant snag. Following a challenging Triple-A outing on Thursday, September 18, 2025, Senga informed club officials on Friday, September 19, 2025, that he does not feel ready to pitch in the majors. His self-assessment of unreadiness after the 'rocky' performance has led to a delay in his comeback, indicating a cautious approach by the Mets organization regarding his reintegration into the pitching rotation.
