Trevor Megill Goes On 15-Day Injured List
4 months agoThe Milwaukee Brewers placed right-handed reliever Trevor Megill (back) on the 15-day injured list on Monday with a lower-back injury, according to manager Pat Murphy. Megill will undergo an MRI exam. Megill will miss at least the next two weeks and possibly longer, depending on the results of his tests. The 30-year-old veteran reliever served as Milwaukee's closer during the first half of the 2024 season with Devin Williams on the injured list, posting a career-best 2.41 ERA (2.73 FIP), a 1.04 WHIP, the first 20 saves of his career and a great 40:8 K:BB in 33 2/3 innings pitched. He was headed for a big drop in fantasy value with Williams returning to the fold after the All-Star break, and now his value has hit a new low in 2024 with his placement on the IL. With Megill out, Milwaukee will lean more on Jared Koenig and Nick Mears as late-inning setup men in front of Williams.
