Overview

  • Megill was shelved with a right elbow strain that tests revealed to involve inflammation but no ligament damage
  • He will be shut down for seven to ten days before undergoing a follow-up evaluation after allowing six runs in 3⅔ innings last Saturday
  • Justin Garza joins the major league bullpen after three scoreless outings in Triple-A Syracuse, where he struck out two without allowing a walk
  • Kodai Senga remains sidelined by a hamstring strain while Frankie Montas nears activation after completing his rehab assignment for a right lat strain
  • Despite the rotation challenges, New York leads the majors with a 2.97 team ERA and holds a 45-27 record through two-plus months
