Senga is scheduled to throw a bullpen session Tuesday at Yankee Stadium ahead of that expected start. “Everything is trending in the right direction,” manager Carlos Mendoza said Sunday, a day after Senga allowed five earned runs on eight hits and three walks in three innings for Triple-A Syracuse, throwing...
