Mets Minors Recap: Megill Begins Rehab Assignment

Tylor Megill made his first appearance since June 14 after landing on the Injured List with a right elbow sprain, tossing 1.2 innings on 41 pitches in his rehab debut. In Syracuse, Carson Benge, Jett Williams, and Ryan Clifford all made their 2025 Triple-A debuts.

Triple-A

Rochester Red Wings (43-69) 1, Syracuse Mets (61-54) 2

Box Score

LF Jared Young, 1-for-3, R, HR (12), RBI, BB, K (.955 OPS)
CF Carson Benge, 1-for-3, BB, K
SS Jett Williams, 0-for-4
1B Ryan Clifford, 0-for-3, R, BB, K

Jared Young powered the Mets to a win Tuesday with his 12th Triple-A homer of the season. The game also marked the 2025 Triple-A debuts for Jett Williams, Carson Benge, and Ryan Clifford — with Benge and Clifford reaching base, and Clifford scoring the game-winning run.

RHP Dom Hamel, 2 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 4 K (4.76 ERA)
RHP Huascar Brazoban, 2.1 IP, 1 H, 0 R, BB, 1 K (9.45 ERA)
LHP Jose Castillo, 1.1 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 0 BB, 3 K (1.17 ERA)

Dom Hamel looked fantastic Tuesday, dominating in his role as an opener. The Syracuse Mets’ bullpen is essentially an extension of the big-league staff, with Brazoban, Castillo, Pintaro, and Devenski all pitching Tuesday – and logging plenty of innings in Queens this year.

Double-A

Binghamton Rumble Ponies (72-35) 5, New Hampshire Fisher Cats (45-63) 3

Box Score

CF Nick Morabito, 1-for-4, R, HR (5) (.777 OPS)
LF Chris Suero, 1-for-4, R, HR (3), 2 RBI, 3 K (.766 OPS)
SS William Lugo, 2-for-2, R, HR (5), RBI, 2 BB (.596 OPS)

Utility man Chris Suero launched his third Double-A homer on Tuesday, this time while playing left field. A key part of the Brooklyn Cyclones’ wrecking crew in the first half of the season (13 HR in 74 games), he’s looking to carry that success into Binghamton.

RHP Tylor Megill, 1.2 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 4 K
LHP Felipe De La Cruz, 2 IP, 2 H, 1 ER, 0 BB, 4 K (3.96 ERA)

After landing on the injured list in mid-June, Megill made a successful first rehab start in Binghamton, tossing 1.2 innings on 41 pitches. His early-season success has tapered off, but he still gives the big-league club another depth option.
