Kodai Senga’s 2025 season has been nothing short of dominant. Yet, the New York Mets ace was omitted from MLB’s latest National League Cy Young Award poll. MLB shared an image of the Cy Young Poll chosen by a panel of experts. Topping the list was Pittsburgh Pirates star Paul Skenes.
The league captioned the post stating that Skenes is looking to add the NL Cy Young to his already impressive resume. Following Skenes were Phillies star Zach Wheeler, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, Logan Webb, and Mackenzie Gore. However, Senga was off the list, and fans were upset.
A majority of fans slammed the league for leaving out the Mets star. Here’s a look at some fan reactions from X.

Kodai Senga Continues To Show Dominance For The Mets

The Mets hold the best ERA in the league (2.86). Senga has contributed significantly to the team’s strong ERA. With a strong pitching rotation, the Mets are huge favorites to make it to the World Series.
