It's April 29th, from game day to every day, this is New York Met's news today, powered by AI. The New York Met's are piling up problems early this season with one of the worst records in Major League Baseball, and now their starting rotation. Just took another punch. Kodai Senga, the 33-year-old right-hander, landed on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with inflammation in his lumbar spine. That's a tough blow in just the first 28 games. To fill the gap, the Met's called up Christian Scott from Triple A Syracuse. Senga had flash brilliance in his first three MLB years, but this season he struggled hard through 20 innings with a 9.00. Earned run average, a 1.950, walks plus hits, per inning pitched, and zero wins against four losses. The most losses in baseball. Fans and the team are feeling the heat as injuries keep hammering the pitching staff, leaving them scrambling for stability. Senga's four losses in five starts, highlight how fragile things are, and the Met's overall

slump makes every setback sting more. Scott steps in as the likely replacement, though his only big league outing last year was rough. He lasted just one in a third innings, gave up five, walks, one earned run, and one strike out in a win over the twins. Clay Home starts Tuesday against the Washington Nationals, so Scott might pitch Wednesday or Thursday in that series. With these moves, the Met's are patching holes on the fly, hoping Scott settles in quick while Senga heals up for a potential turnaround.
