Wil Myers Believes He's Stronger And Faster In 2018
7 years agoDennis Lin of The Athletic reports San Diego Padres outfielder Wil Myers put on over 20 pounds in the offseason, increasing his playing weight to 224. Despite the gain, Myers thinks he's both faster and stronger. This could be an iteration of the classic "best shape of my life" maxim, but fantasy owners could take note, considering his pre-existing 30-homer, 20-stolen base potential. With a negative career UZR, Myers has never graded as a strong outfielder, so it'll be interesting how his new frame affects his playing style on defense. Myers currently has an ADP of 69 and is RotoBaller's 60th ranked player overall.
