NEW YORK (AP) — Right-hander Tylor Megill was placed on the 15-day injured list by the New York Mets because of biceps tendinitis. The move came four days after Megill allowed eight runs over 1 1/3 innings during a defeat at Washington. The 26-year-old pitcher will take a few days off from throwing and then be reassessed later this week. Megill is 4-2 with a 4.41 ERA in seven starts, striking out 37 and walking nine in 34 2/3 innings. He has been part of a rotation that includes Max Scherzer, Chris Bassitt, Taijuan Walker and Carlos Carrasco.
