Mets' Kodai Senga: Playing catch every other day

Mets president of baseball operations David Stearns said Friday that it would be 1-2 weeks before a throwing program for Senga (shoulder) is laid out, Joe Pantorno of amNewYork reports.

Senga was cleared to begin playing catch Wednesday and will do that every other day for the time being. Previous reports indicated that Senga's ramp-up period would likely take at least six weeks, and that rough timeline still appears to be intact. He's coming back from a right shoulder capsule strain.
