2023 Fantasy Outlook
With Jacob deGrom shut down at the time with a shoulder injury and Max Scherzer scratched with ankle issue, Megill got the Opening Day nod for the Mets. He surprised many by pitching like a legitimate ace, going 4-1 with a 2.43 ERA, 0.90 WHIP and 36:8 K:BB in six starts (33.1 innings) before biceps tendonitis put him on the shelf. The right-hander returned in June only to leave his second start back with shoulder discomfort. A four-week shutdown period ensued and Megill returned in late September as a reliever with time running out in the season. It stands to reason that the Mets will stretch him back out as a starter in spring training assuming he has a normal winter with no setbacks. The health questions leave him as something of a wild card entering 2023. If healthy, he could prove to be a quality back-end piece to a fantasy rotation. Read Past Outlooks

Walks five in no-decision
PNew York Mets
June 3, 2023
Megill did not factor into the decision Saturday, allowing one run on five hits and five walks over 5.1 innings against the Blue Jays. He struck out five.
ANALYSIS
Megill struggled with control once again Saturday, setting a season-high with five walks while hitting the strike zone on just 58 of his 103 pitches. However, the 27-year-old managed to limit damage, letting just one runner score despite allowing five hits. Though Megill owns a 5-3 record, he has stumbled to a 4.40 ERA, 5.19 FIP and a 1.50 K/BB through 59.1 innings and is lined up to make his next start against the Pirates in Pittsburgh.

2022 Fantasy Outlook
As a rookie, Tylor Megill pitched well in the first month (35.1 IP) - 2.04 ERA, 1.10 WHIP, 27.1% K%, and 7.6% BB%. Megill's ratios looked solid, but the 93% LOB% and .270 BABIP, plus the 1.09 HR/9, boosted them. However, then the LOB% (69.6%) and BABIP (.315) regressed. The same trend applied with the home run rate evidenced by the 2.48 HR/9 as the ratios ballooned to a 6.13 ERA and 1.40 WHIP in the final 54.1 innings. Some positive takeaways for the last two months - a quality 25.5% K%, 6.8% BB%, and improved 12.8% SwStr% compared to 11% to start the season. Megill's changeup (18.2%) and slider (15.4%) boast double-digit SwStr% with the 4-seam at 9.3%. It's a small sample, but Megill's slider performed the best with a .266 wOBA versus the 4-seam (.353) and change (.342). Target Megill as a breakout pitcher candidate towards the back half of drafts, but there's a chance the Mets bring in another veteran SP.
