Max Meyer (neck) has been shut down from throwing for the rest of the season.

There simply isn’t enough time for Meyer to make the kind of progress that would enable him to pitch again before the regular season concludes. The 27-year-old engineered a phenomenal breakout campaign, posting a sparkling 2.68 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 121/41 K/BB ratio across 111 innings over 20 starts, prior to hitting the injured list with a neck injury in late July. All signs point to Meyer having a relatively normal offseason and being ready for spring training.
