• Mets' Tylor Megill: On NLDS roster

  10/05/2024 • By RotoWire

  Megill is on the Mets' roster for the NLDS versus Philadelphia. Megill was left off New York's roster for the wild-card round, but he's active for the NLDS. The right-hander started 15 of the 16 games in which he pitched during the regular season and compiled a 4.04 ERA, 1.31 WHIP and 91:32 K:BB over 78 total innings. Megill will likely work in long relief against the Phillies and could be used in that capacity in Game 1 with Kodai Senga likely on a limited pitch count.

• Mets' Tylor Megill: Absent from wild-card roster

  10/01/2024 • By RotoWire

  Megill is not on the Mets' roster for the National League Wild Card Series against the Brewers, Mike Puma of the New York Post reports. Megill wasn't going to be available to pitch in the series after throwing 100 pitches over 5.2 innings Monday in Atlanta, so the Mets will carry a long reliever in Max Kranick instead. Should the Mets advance to the NLDS, Megill is a good bet to be added to their roster at that time.

  09/29/2024 • By RotoWire

  Megill will start the first game of Monday's doubleheader with Atlanta, Andy Martino of SNY.tv reports. Megill will get another turn in the rotation before the end of the regular season as New York tries to qualify for the postseason. The Mets need to win at least one of the two contests in the twin bill to clinch a spot in the Wild Card Round beginning Tuesday. Megill has compiled a 1.80 ERA and 0.95 WHIP with 22 strikeouts over 20 innings through four starts in September.

  09/18/2024 • By RotoWire

  Megill (4-5) earned the win Tuesday against the Nationals, allowing one unearned run on two hits and two walks over six innings. He struck out four. The New York right-hander posted his second consecutive quality start and third overall with this 94-pitch performance. Megill allowed just one extra-base hit -- a double by Dylan Crews in the second -- working around an unearned run in third en route to his 21st career win. The hard-throwing 29-year-old averaged 96.3 mph on his fastball, up 0.7 mph from his normal, and has now pitched to a 2.76 ERA, 1.02 WHIP and 28:9 K:BB across 29.1 innings in the second half. Megill looks to continue his impressive work against the division-leading Phillies in next start, scheduled for this weekend.

• Mets' Tylor Megill: Next start coming Tuesday

  09/14/2024 • By RotoWire

  Megill is expected to make his next start Tuesday against the Nationals at Citi Field, Tim Britton of The Athletic reports. Though Mets manager Carlos Mendoza said that Megill would stick in the rotation after striking out nine over six shutout innings Monday against the Blue Jays, the right-hander will have to wait more than a week to make his next turn. While Megill would be on normal rest for Saturday's game in Philadelphia or five days' rest for Sunday's series finale, the Mets are instead realigning their rotation to have Luis Severino and David Peterson start those respective games. The shuffling will allow the team's top pitcher, Sean Manaea, to start every five days down the stretch, as the Mets push for a wild-card spot. Manaea will take the hill for Monday's series opener versus the Nationals and will be followed by Megill and Jose Quintana, on Tuesday and Wednesday, respectively. Manaea and Megill will both be on track for two-start weeks, with the two lining up for starts in next weekend's home series versus the Phillies.
