Locks down third save
Senga secured the save against the Nationals on Sunday, striking out two in a clean ninth inning.
Análise
Senga continues to experience a seamless transition into New York's closer role while Devin Williams (shoulder) is on the injured list. The right-hander has now successfully converted each of his first three save chances, and he's also submitted five consecutive scoreless outings as a reliever. Given Senga's 9.66 ERA and 1.80 WHIP over 31.2 innings as a starter, it's hard to envision the Mets moving the hurler back into the rotation again this year even after Williams returns.

Records second save of season
Senga allowed one hit while striking out one over a scoreless ninth inning to earn the save in Friday's 4-1 win over the Nationals.
Análise
Senga recorded two quick outs before making things interesting. After allowing a single to Jacob Young and plunking CJ Abrams with a pitch, Senga fanned Abimelec Ortiz to earn his second save of the season. The right-hander has now recorded both of the Mets' saves since Devin Williams landed on the injured list Monday with a right shoulder strain, suggesting he'd the team's top ninth-inning option in the short term. That's a notable development after Senga went 0-8 with an 8.66 ERA over his first 13 appearances (eight starts) this season before losing his rotation spot. He has yet to allow a run and owns a 0.75 WHIP in four August relief outings.

Earns first career save
Senga earned the save in in Monday's 8-5 win over Atlanta, allowing no hits and one walk with two strikeouts in a scoreless ninth inning.
Análise
Senga was summoned for his first major-league save opportunity and worked around a two-out walk to secure a three-run victory for the Mets. With Devin Williams (shoulder) hitting the injured list, the 33-year-old Senga appears to be part of a potential closer committee for as long as he's out. He's had few bright moments this season, posting a bloated 8.12 ERA, 1.70 WHIP and 57:34 K across 47.2 innings as both a starter and reliever.

Closer candidate with Williams out
Senga is a candidate to see save opportunities while Devin Williams (shoulder) is sidelined, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.
Análise
The Mets do not expect Williams to be out long with his right shoulder strain, but he will miss at least the next couple weeks after landing on the 15-day injured list Monday. Senga has been used primarily as a reliever since the beginning of July, and he's logged two scoreless outings in short relief this month. Daniel Duarte is also a candidate for saves, but the Mets aren't expected to name a closer while Williams is shelved.
