Tylor Megill Shut Down from Throwing Due to Recurring Elbow Tightness, Return Unlikely

New York Mets right-hander Tylor Megill has been shut down from throwing after experiencing tightness in his secondary pitches during his latest rehab appearance on Sunday. Megill is now back in New York for imaging, and manager Carlos Mendoza indicated that a return to the Mets this season is 'getting more and more unlikely' given the recurring nature of the injury, which is the same right elbow sprain that has kept him on the shelf since June 15. Megill had been rehabbing between Double-A and Triple-A for the past month, with the Mets hoping for a late-season return.
