Tylor Megill Recalled for Mets Start vs. Atlanta

The New York Mets have recalled Tylor Megill from Triple-A Syracuse to start against Atlanta on Saturday, filling the rotation spot left by Christian Scott's elbow injury. Megill, who has struggled in his recent stints in the majors with a 5.08 ERA, has shown improvement in Triple-A with a 4.05 ERA. Although Kodai Senga's recent calf injury might necessitate further rotation adjustments, the team is currently maintaining a six-man rotation to accommodate Senga's recovery. Manager Carlos Mendoza remains uncertain about Megill's long-term role, suggesting this start is a critical opportunity for him to secure a place. Jeremy Hefner, the Mets' pitching coach, noted that Megill has been refining his pitch selection and mechanics during his time in the minors. Meanwhile, Jose Butto will stay in the bullpen where he has excelled this month.
