Wil Myers: Playing career over
Myers said last week that he has no intention of resuming his baseball career, AJ Cassavell of MLB.com reports.
Myers noted that he will never officially retire, but he decided in June of 2023 after being released by the Reds amidst shoulder problems that he would not play baseball again. The 34-year-old slashed .252/.326/.437 with 156 home runs over parts of 11 major-league seasons, winning the American League Rookie of the Year award in 2013 and making one All-Star team in 2016.

Wil Myers: Released by Cincy
The Reds released Myers on Thursday.
Myers was DFA'd by the Reds on Tuesday upon returning from the 10-day injured list. Myers has played well-below his usual standard this season, recording just a .540 OPS through 141 plate appearances in Cincinnati. His previous history in the majors could be enough to at least get him a minor-league deal, but Myers would have to turn things around in a big way to have any fantasy value.

Reds' Wil Myers: Reinstated from IL, DFA'd
The Reds reinstated Myers (shoulder) from the 10-day injured list Tuesday and designated him for assignment.
Myers landed on the IL on May 26 with kidney stones before also suffering a left shoulder sprain. The 32-year-old outfielder was slashing .189/.257/.283 through 141 plate appearances prior to getting injured and put up similar numbers during his rehab assignment, so the Reds will pass him through waivers and attempt to keep Myers in Triple-A.

Reds' Wil Myers: Could return next weekend
Myers (shoulder) recently said that he could return from the 10-day injured list ahead of the Reds' series in Houston that begins Friday, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Myers, who is working his way back from a left shoulder sprain and who also recently passed a kidney stone, began a rehab assignment with Triple-A Louisville this weekend and has gone 0-for-6 with a walk between his first two games with the affiliate. He looks as though he'll play at least a couple more games with Louisville before returning to the big club, though once he's activated, it's unclear if Myers will be in store for an everyday role in what's suddenly a crowded Cincinnati roster. Even before landing on the IL on May 26, Myers had mustered a measly .540 OPS through his first 141 plate appearances with Cincinnati.

Reds' Wil Myers: Dealing with shoulder sprain
Reds manager David Bell revealed Tuesday that Myers (illness) suffered a left shoulder sprain last week, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Myers was placed on the 10-day injured list May 26 due to kidney stones, but Bell clarified Tuesday that the shoulder sprain -- suffered May 23 -- is what will keep him out until at least the early part of June. "He's healthy, the (kidney stone) has passed," said Bell. "The shoulder, which was initially our concern, is still a bit stiff."

Reds' Wil Myers: Placed on IL with kidney stones
Myers was placed on the 10-day injured list by the Reds on Friday with kidney stones, Mark Sheldon of MLB.com reports.
It helps explain why Myers hasn't started a game in a few days. Presumably, he should be ready to go when his 10 days are up. Stuart Fairchild has been playing right field of late and Will Benson has been recalled to take Myers' spot on the roster.

Reds' Wil Myers: On bench Wednesday
Myers is not in the lineup Wednesday against the Cardinals.
Nick Senzel, Jose Barrero and Stuart Fairchild will start across the outfield for the Reds. Luke Maile is taking a turn as the designated hitter. Myers has slashed just .189/.257/.283 through 37 games this season and could be at risk of losing playing time if his current prolonged slump continues. He had some decent spurts in April.
