Mets right-handed starter Kodai Senga’s focus is getting to the regular season in optimum health.
With that in mind, the Mets right-hander refrained Wednesday from throwing his signature forkball, a second straight start in which he avoided the pitch.
“It’s not like anything is bugging me, but obviously easing it, and I just want to be 100 percent going into this season, so there is no need to rush anything,” Senga said through his interpreter after the Mets’ 5-2 exhibition loss to the Astros at Clover Park.He has pitched to a 4.00 ERA in his three Grapefruit League appearances this spring.“There’s a lot of things to work on, a lot of adjustments to make, but it went OK,” Senga said.
Showalter wouldn’t elaborate on the elbow maintenance other than to say it’s something Carrasco does on occasion throughout the year. Brandon Nimmo and Brooks Raley participated in a minor league game and Showalter indicated the hope is both will play in the Grapefruit League this weekend as a precursor to starting the regular season with the team.
