Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said Wednesday that Senga will pitch Friday in Game 5 of the NLCS versus the Dodgers, although not necessarily as the starter, Tim Healey of Newsday reports.
Senga started Game 1 of the NLCS and struggled mightily, allowing three runs with a 0:4 K:BB over 1.1 innings. While Mendoza is committed to giving the right-hander another shot in Game 5, it appears it could come as a reliever.
