"New York Mets starting pitcher Tylor Megill is headed to Los Angeles, where he will meet with doctors in Los Angeles on Tuesday to confirm whether or not he needs season-ending Tommy John surgery on the UCL in his right elbow. Megill, who was returning from an elbow injury that occurred on June 14, felt tightness in the area during his most recent minor-league rehab start and was subsequently shut down."
"The Mets are also playing the waiting game with right-handed reliever Reed Garrett, who was placed on the 15-day injured list on Thursday with what manager Carlos Mendoza described as a concerning elbow injury. His shutdown came roughly one week after he was activated from the IL for a similar injury. Tommy John surgery still appears to be on the table, but Mendoza did not have an update on the next steps for Garrett ahead of Sunday afternoon's home regular-season finale against the Washington Nationals."
"Struggling starting pitcher Kodai Senga will throw a live batting practice session on either Tuesday or Wednesday down in Florida, per Mendoza, though time is running out to salvage the right-hander's disappointing season. Dealing with mechanics issues that resulted in a considerable slump he posted a X ERA in nine starts since his return from a hamstring injury on July 11 Senga accepted a demotion to Triple-A in an attempt to figure things out. That hasn't happened yet."
Tylor Megill flew to Los Angeles for a medical evaluation of a right UCL elbow injury that may require season-ending Tommy John surgery after feeling tightness during a minor-league rehab start following a June 14 injury. A surgery would likely also cost Megill the 2026 season and consume one of his final two years under team control; he is slated for free agency after 2027. The Mets are monitoring reliever Reed Garrett after a concerning elbow issue and IL stint, with Tommy John surgery still possible. Kodai Senga will throw live batting practice in Florida as he works through mechanics problems after a slump and a Triple-A demotion.
