Mets’ Tylor Megill gets MRI for ‘tender’ shoulder after exiting start early
NY Post
Already without Kodai Senga in the rotation because of a shoulder injury, the Mets could now be without Tylor Megill, who left his start after four innings on Sunday against the Brewers because he “was a little bit tender in his shoulder area,” according to bench coach John Gibbons, who was filling in for suspended manager Carlos Mendoza in a 4-1 loss at Citi Field.
Megill underwent an MRI exam to determine the severity of the injury.
He struggled with his command, walking three and hitting a batter and was removed after 78 pitches.
Gibbons said Megill would have remained in the game if he hadn’t mentioned the injury.
The injury news surprised Omar Narvaez, who was behind the plate Sunday and said he saw no indication anything was bothering the right-hander.
“I didn’t see any anything,’’ Narvaez said. “Actually, I thought his last inning was his best inning. He was more under control and throwing more strikes.”
