Wil Myers On The Bench Saturday
3 years agoSan Diego Padres outfielder Wil Myers is absent from Saturday's lineup for the matchup with the San Francisco Giants, according to MLB.com. Myers has taken a step backward after a career year in 2020 but has still put up decent numbers. He's slashing .257/.335/.437 with 17 HRs and eight stolen bases over 145 games. Jurickson Profar will replace Myers in the outfield and bat fifth. Profar hasn't looked good at the plate in 135 games this season, hitting .224 with just four home runs. He's fared better against righties, slashing .244/.348/.343, and with Kevin Gausman on the rubber, he can be streamed in deep OBP leagues.
