3 years agoSan Diego Padres outfielder Wil Myers (neck) was forced to exit early during Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. The 31-year-old was pulled out of the contest in the third inning due to neck tightness. Since then, the organization hasn't given an update on Myers, but the expectation is that he's listed as day-to-day. Possibly, the Padres place him on the injured list, but might wait a few days. Matt Beaty replaced Myers on Sunday, so he'd likely see more playing time, assuming Myers sits out more contests.--Andy Webb - RotoBaller

3 years agoSan Diego Padres outfielder Wil Myers' (knee) minor league rehab assignment will continue for at least a couple more days, as he and the Padres felt he'd benefit by getting some more at-bats at Triple-A El Paso. In three games, Myers is 4-for-14 and went 6-for-18 in five games with Low-A Lake Elsinore. "I don't think he feels comfortable enough with the time off yet to where he's ready to face major league pitching," skipper Bob Melvin said. The 31-year-old has been on the injured list since June 2, and the Friars could choose to ease him back into action at the major league level once he's activated. In 32 games before his knee injury, Myers was hitting .234/.276/.306 with one home run, 19 RBI and 13 runs scored in 124 at-bats.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
