New York Mets pitcher Kodai Senga has been diagnosed with a moderate strain in the back of his right shoulder, causing him to miss Opening Day and start the season on the injured list. The specific timeline for his return to the mound is unclear, but a typical recovery may involve a two-week shutdown followed by a six-week arm strength building process. The injury, labeled as a "posterior capsule strain," is not considered major and may be related to mechanical issues rather than overuse. While the news is concerning, it could have been worse if the injury had been in the front of the shoulder, which would have been harder to manage and potentially required surgery.
