The New York Mets appear likely to join the trade market for a starting pitcher following Kodai Senga’s injury.
The Mets had been counting on the 31-year-old’s return and it was short-lived. In his first start of the season on Friday, Senga suffered a left calf strain and is now expected to miss the remainder of the regular season.
With this development, Joel Sherman of the New York Post reported that the Mets have entered the starting pitcher market and named Chicago White Sox veteran Erick Fedde as a potential option.
Fedde has been excellent in his return to MLB in 2024. He is 7-3 with a 2.98 ERA in 117.2 innings for the White Sox in 2024 and is also under contract for the 2025 season at $7.5 million.
Competition could be steep for Fedde, with the St. Louis Cardinals also linked to the right-hander. However, the Mets could use some more rotation depth as they look to remain in playoff contention.
New York is currently 55-49 and holds the final NL Wild Card spot. The pitching has struggled at times, with the staff ranking 21st in MLB with a 4.15 ERA.
Fedde could help stabilize the rotation and serve in the role Senga was expected to fill down the stretch. If the Mets are unable to land Fedde, Sherman reported that Chicago Cubs pitcher Jameson Taillon could also be in play.
The MLB Trade Deadline is set for July 30 at 6 p.m. ET.
