“Mystery Ace Megill: Can He Single-handedly Dethrone the Phillies?”

The Mets have been fantastic to start the year. They had a massive turnaround last season and were able to make it to the National League Championship Series. During the offseason, they were able to sign Juan Soto. My biggest question mark about the team was if their pitching staff without a true ace would continue to perform as well as they did last season. To this point in the season, they’ve been great. The pitching staff for New York has a 2.35 ERA and a 1.15 WHIP. One of those pitchers who is contributing quite a bit at the moment is Tylor Megill. Megill is 2-2 with a 1.40 ERA and a 1.34 WHIP for the season. I have to imagine the WHIP will come down, or the ERA will increase. They don’t really let Megill go deep into games. He has fewer than 20 innings in his four outings. He has been very good against the Phillies though, holding them to just 17 hits in 86 at-bats with just five of them going for extra-bases.
