Wil Myers Fantasy

San Diego Padres outfielder Wil Myers went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer in Sundays victory against the Arizona Diamondbacks. The 29-year-old stayed hot, pounding a first-inning offering from starter Madison Bumgarner into the stands before later singling. Through 60 plate appearances, Myers has gone yard five times with 21 runs-plus-RBI and a steal while slashing .278/.350/.667. While hes still striking out at a 36 percent clip, Myers has supplemented a .346 BABIP with a phenomenal 23 percent barrel and 47 percent hard-hit rate. Drafted as an afterthought in fantasy, Myers is now tough to bench in leagues of any size.

San Diego Padres outfielder Wil Myers is out of Tuesdays lineup against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Facing righty Dustin May, the Friars will load the outfield with lefties as Abraham Almonte and Josh Naylor will start alongside Trent Grisham. Tommy Pham is the designated hitter. Even with the matchup, Myers omission is a head-scratcher after he homered on Monday and is off to a blistering 1.045 OPS with three long balls and a steal. Both Almonte and Naylor are collectively 3-for-14 on the season and DFS punt options. Assuming neither hitter makes much noise Tuesday, expect Myers to continue drawing regular starts.

San Diego Padres outfielder Wil Myers went 2-for-4 with a solo homer and double in Mondays victory against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Myers crushed a fourth-inning mistake by Dodgers starter Walker Buehler into the opposite field seats for his third dinger before collecting a two-bagger later in the contest. The 29-year-old has rebounded commendably from a miserable 2019 campaign, slashing .282/.378/.667 with 15 runs-plus-RBI and a steal to complement the homers. Despite striking out at a 35 percent clip, the resurgent Myers merits fantasy ownership in most fantasy formats.
