Tylor Megill Injury: Shut down from throwing

The Mets have shut down Megill (elbow) from throwing after he experienced tightness in his right arm during his rehab start Sunday with Triple-A Syracuse, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

Megill was knocked around for five runs on four hits and two walks while striking out three batters across two innings during Sunday's outing. Laura Albanese of Newsday notes that Megill experienced tightness when throwing his secondary pitches and will undergo an MRI, but this latest setback puts a potential return this season in jeopardy.
