Mets move Kodai Senga to bullpen, Robert Stock gets another start

Mets interim manager Andy Green confirmed that Kodai Senga will transition to a bullpen role, focusing on being a leverage reliever. Senga's recent appearances included an emergency start, but the Mets are now looking to utilize him in shorter bursts. Robert Stock will take the mound for another start, building off a successful major league debut where he allowed one run in five innings. Following the trade deadline, several veteran relievers left the organization, prompting changes in the team's bullpen strategy. Luis Robert Jr. will continue to receive playing time in the outfield as the Mets evaluate their options moving forward.
