8/5 5:00 AM Kodai Senga (P-NYM) Kodai Senga's lack of durability will surprisingly help Mets long-term. The New York Mets landed a huge upgrade for their starting rotation when they signed Kodai Senga as a free agent ahead of the 2023 season. A star in Japan before coming over to MLB, he had the skill to become a legitimate ace in North America, someone the Mets could build their starting rotation around for years to come. Senga also made the National League All-Star team, finished seventh in NL Cy Young Award voting, and was second in the NL Rookie of the Year Race, behind only Corbin Carroll of the Arizona Diamondbacks. Unfortunately, while Senga has regularly performed like an ace when on the mound, he has also struggled to stay healthy during his tenure with the franchise to this point, making only 47 starts across three seasons.
