Senga, a righty, was set to undergo imaging.
The Japanese star made his spring and stateside debut Sunday, when he was wild early but recovered and allowed one run in two innings., once for a strikeout, and cited the pitch clock as a bother.
He felt he was rushing, so further experience with the timer before the season begins would be helpful.It is unclear how long Senga will be sidelined.Throwing once a week last year, he pitched in 23 games in the Japan Pacific League, with a 1.89 ERA in 148 innings.Lefty reliever Brooks Raley sustained a low-grade hamstring strain while playing with Team USA.The veteran starter has been out indefinitely since he sustained a “small stress fracture” in his fifth rib on his left side, the Mets said.
David Peterson has been seen as the front-runner for a rotation spot if Quintana is not ready for the first weeks of the season.
