The New York Mets can envision a time in the not-so-distant future in which they actually have too many starting pitchers.
Until then, though, the Mets need rookie Tylor Megill to continue performing like an unexpected ace.
Megill will look to help the Mets bounce back from a lopsided loss when he takes the mound Wednesday night against the visiting Atlanta Braves in the penultimate contest of a five-game series.
The right-handed Megill (1-0, 2.10 ERA) is scheduled to oppose left-hander Max Fried (7-6, 4.46).
Austin Riley hit two homers and drove in a career-high six runs Tuesday to lead the Braves to a 12-5 win.
