New York Mets right-hander Kodai Senga is attracting trade interest from other clubs as he prepares to slot into the starting rotation for the 2027 season, according to a report from SB Nation.
The 34-year-old Japanese pitcher, who wears number 34 for the Mets, appeared in a game against the Tampa Bay Rays at Tropicana Field on August 31, 2026, celebrating with teammates after New York secured a 3-2 victory. Despite the on-field success, speculation about his future with the organization has intensified heading into the offseason.
Senga, who signed with the Mets as an international free agent, has shown flashes of brilliance but has also dealt with injury concerns during his tenure in New York. The report indicates the team expects him to prepare as a starter for the 2027 campaign, though trade discussions could alter those plans before spring training begins.
