2025 Fantasy Outlook
It took Megill longer than others on the Mets' pitching staff to embrace the team's new emphasis on the sinker. He didn't throw a single two-seamer through the end of June, but from late July on after he was recalled from the minors Megill used the pitch more than 20 percent of the time. It helped him to a 3.00 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 42:13 K:BB over his final 39 innings, which covered seven starts and one relief appearance. The sinker earned a .250 xwOBA, which was easily the best mark out of Megill's top four most-used pitches. Megill also seemed to solve his career-long issues versus left-handed batters, holding them to a .680 OPS as he introduced a cutter and splitter and threw more curveballs. It's possible Megill gets pushed to the bullpen or minors, depending on how the Mets' address their rotation, but the big righty looks interesting again now that he's got some swing-and-miss back and expanded his repertoire.

Lands on IL with sprained elbow
The Mets placed Megill on the 15-day injured list Tuesday with a right elbow sprain.
ANALYSIS
A sprained elbow indicates Megill is dealing with damage to his UCL, but the pitcher said Tuesday that he just has inflammation and no structural damage, per Anthony DiComo of MLB.com. Megill will be shut down for at least 7-to-10 days before ramping back up. The Mets are due to get Frankie Montas (lat) and Sean Manaea (oblique) back soon, but they will need someone else to fill in for Megill later this week in Philadelphia.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
2022
Megill technically didn't make the Mets' Opening Day roster in 2023, but he was immediately needed as an injury fill-in for Justin Verlander and wound up making 25 starts by the end of the season. The results were underwhelming, with Megill holding a 4.70 ERA and watching his strikeout rate plummet to 18.5 percent and walk rate rise to 10.2 percent. While he has above-average velocity, Megill's fastball was by far his most-used (55.7 percent) and least-effective (48.6 percent hard-hit rate, .408 xWOBA) pitch last season. There should be a little positive regression there in 2024, but Megill has yet to show the ability to be both healthy and effective over long periods of time. He'll probably have to compete in spring training for a spot in the Mets' rotation.

Megill likely factors into the equation as the Mets fill the rotation void created by Jose Quintana's rib injury.
ANALYSIS
Megill limped to a 5.13 ERA through 47.1 innings last season. After beginning the season as a starter, he failed to record a win after April and was shut down throughout the summer due to shoulder issues. Megill joined the bullpen upon his return, but he struggled down the stretch. Megill operated as a full-time starter in 2021, logging an expected-ERA of 3.84. Depending on how the Mets officially decide to utilize him, the 27-year-old has upside as a back-end starter.
