The New York Mets placed rookie right-hander Christian Scott on the injured list with a right UCL sprain, a major blow to their National League Wild Card hopes. Manager Carlos Mendoza revealed Scott's discomfort and the possibility of surgery as an option. The Mets will continue with a six-man rotation in Scott's absence, with Jose Butto a potential replacement.

Kodai Senga, set to make his season debut for the Mets, faced setbacks due to a right shoulder strain. After recent rehab starts in Triple-A, Senga aims to return to form and contribute to the team's success in the second half of the season.
