Myers started in center field and went 2-for-3 with a solo home run in Sunday's spring game against the Athletics.
Reds manager Terry Francona is toying with the idea of Myers in center field and moving TJ Friedl, the team's primary starter in center, to a corner outfield spot. That's an alignment the manager used last Thursday, and Francona told Mark Sheldon of MLB.com that he'll do that a few more times this spring. Myers could either serve as a right-handed hitting complement to Friedl, or the two elite outfield defenders could play the same day.

Reds' Dane Myers: Good fit for Reds
Rotowire
Myers is expected to make the Reds' Opening Day roster due to his superb defense and his ability to hit left-handed pitchers, after he hit .297/.360/.456 against them over the last three seasons, Mark Bowman of MLB.com reports.
Whenever the Reds haven't had TJ Friedl available for a given game, they have had to compromise on defense in center field, but Myers addresses that shortcoming nicely. The only thing working against Myers is that the team otherwise has so many right-handed hitters, which might encourage them to carry both JJ Bleday and Will Benson instead.

Reds' Dane Myers: Traded to Reds
Rotowire
The Marlins traded Myers (knee) to the Reds on Saturday in exchange for Ethan O'Donnell.
After signing JJ Bleday to a one-year deal earlier Saturday, the Reds will continue to bolster their outfield unit by bringing in Myers. The 29-year-old received his first extended look in the majors in 2025 and slashed .235/.291/.326 with six homers, 31 RBI, 29 runs scored and 18 steals across 333 plate appearances. His right-handed bat and career .816 OPS against southpaws may enable him to work in the short side of a platoon in the Reds' outfield. Otherwise, he'll provide depth to the big-league bench or head down to Triple-A Louisville.

Marlins' Dane Myers: Cleared for rehab games
Rotowire
Myers (oblique) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Jacksonville on Thursday, Kevin Barral of FishonFirst.com reports.
Myers has been sidelined for all of September with a right oblique strain but has been cleared to knock some rust off on a rehab assignment. Because the absence has been brief, he shouldn't require too many rehab at-bats before being activated from the 10-day injured list. Myers could be limited to playing time versus left-handed pitching upon his return.

Marlins' Dane Myers: Leaves with side discomfort
Rotowire
Myers was pulled from Saturday's game against the Mets with right side discomfort, Stephen Strom of Marlins Radio Network reports.
After striking out during his at-bat in the first inning, Myers was replaced in the field by Jakob Marsee. The severity of Myers' injury has yet to be determined, but the Marlins' training staff will take a closer look at him and should provide more information soon.
Myers isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game against Atlanta.
Myers will miss a third consecutive start Thursday, as it seems the Marlins have begun to prefer starting Troy Johnston in right field. Myers' slide down the depth chart likely has something to do with the fact that he's slashed just .083/.170/.146 with 17 strikeouts across 53 plate appearances since the All-Star break.
