The Mets head to Kansas City for a three-game set against the Royals before the All-Star break.
Kodai Senga will return to the bump for the first time in a month, while the Royals will send former Met Michael Wacha to the mound.
In his first outing back from a hamstring injury, Friday is looking like an excellent opportunity for Senga to pick up where he left off.

What our Post expert thinks about Mets vs. Royals on Thursday
The Royals have been atrocious offensively this season, hitting .245/.300/.375 as a team with the third-fewest home runs (72) in the majors this season heading into Thursday.
Senga was looking like one of the best pitchers in baseball before pulling his hamstring, giving up three or fewer earned runs in all 13 starts, and two or fewer earned runs in 12 of 13 starts this season.
With the Mets likely to take it easy on Senga with the All-Star break looming, I’m betting the Royals won’t get much on the board against him.
The play: Kodai Senga to give up Under 2.5 earned runs
