How Will He Thrive in Twenty-Five?: Tylor Megill

[Edgy MD]

Every season, the Mets get enough starting pitchers to knock him back to seventh or eighth on the depth charts, and sometimes injuries conspire to open a door for him. Sometimes he performs well in these opportunities, and sometimes he doesn't. Either way, the chapter tends to end with the Mets pushing him back through that same door.

But opportunity has a arisen again, and the hero of Opening Day 2022, and the starting pitcher in the Mets' second-ever no-hitter (didn't remember that, did you?), is still hanging around. Somehow, he still has an option, but the chances are running thin. Will he have the punch to climb over the Griffin Cannings and Frankie Montas the Mets have indifferent set up in front of him? To climb over them and stay?

Surely you know the answer. Because there are a wave of people trying to climb over him as well.

I'd probably have given him a chance over some of the guys they brought in to start. But when given the chance long term, he always seems to spit the bit. I'm not sure if, or when, he will get it together.

He'll go 6-8 4.42 both starting and relieving.

Later

I kinda liked him as a big hard-throwing reliever

[Cowtipper]

Last year was a step up, if you can believe it. I think he'll be their go-to fill-in for injured guys, going 4-2 with a 4.37 ERA in 8 starts, then he'll get traded in July.

I believe Momma Megill will be happy, and we will see more of her at Mets games

[Benjamin Grimm]

Fifteen starts, mostly decent.

[ashie62]

I like my Tylord and he is probably as good as he is going to be a this point

He has not turned into the horse I thought he might but the Mets just need him to be decent and that seems likely

Megill goes deep into a game with the Yankees or Dodgers and comes out with a win and 10 plus K's

[Centerfield]

Guys what if Tylor Megill is good

[Edgy MD]

His managers and pitching coaches have seemingly always believed he was good.

[Cowtipper]

He's probably not.

It's been two games.
