Kodai Senga is scheduled to start for the New York Mets in their game against the Cincinnati Reds on June 16. Senga is stepping in for Christian Scott, who was placed on the injured list due to a hip issue. Senga has not pitched in a major league game since April 26, as he has been recovering from lumbar spine inflammation and has posted a 9.00 ERA over 20 innings this season. He showed improvement during a recent rehab start for Double-A Binghamton, where he allowed just one run over six innings, but he will now face a tougher lineup in the Reds.
