"The right-hander complained of arm tightness while throwing his secondary pitches during his latest minor-league rehab assignment on Sunday, prompting the Mets to send him back to New York, get imaging, and shut him down from throwing. The team is hopeful that they will find out more about the injury in the next day or two, but all signs are pointing to Megill's season being over. We're running out of time, Mendoza said earlier this week. Especially now with him complaining about the same thing he went down with earlier in the year."
"Megill had been rehabbing an elbow sprain that he suffered in June another issue that arose after throwing some of his secondary pitches. He made six minor-league starts between Double-A Binghamton and Triple-A Syracuse, including Sunday, in which he allowed five runs across two-plus innings. That is when he felt the discomfort in his pitching arm. The 30-year-old would have been an intriguing option to add to the Mets' pitching mix down the stretch."
Tylor Megill experienced arm tightness while throwing secondary pitches during a minor-league rehab start, leading the Mets to halt his throwing and obtain imaging. Megill had been rehabbing an elbow sprain sustained in June. He made six minor-league starts between Double-A Binghamton and Triple-A Syracuse and allowed five runs in two-plus innings in his most recent outing when the discomfort returned. The Mets are seeking second and third medical opinions and expect more information within days, but current indications point to Megill missing the remainder of the season. The Mets' starting rotation remains unstable outside a few young arms.
