Reds' Dane Myers: Lands on IL with shoulder injury
Rotowire
The Reds placed Myers on the 10-day injured list Tuesday with a left shoulder contusion, Charlie Goldsmith of Fox 19 Now Cincinnati reports.
Myers had to be carted off the field during Monday's game versus the Brewers after he collided with the outfield wall following a terrific catch. X-rays came back negative, but Myers is still being evaluated to determine whether there's additional damage beyond a contusion. The Reds should have more on Myers' status later this week.

Rotowire
Myers (shoulder) was sent to the hospital for further evaluation after he was carted off the field in the fourth inning of Monday's game against the Brewers, Charlie Goldsmith of Fox 19 Now Cincinnati reports. He went 1-for-2 with a double and an RBI prior to departing the contest.
Myers' left shoulder absorbed the brunt of a collision with a fence while making a spectacular catch in center field. Cincinnati manager Terry Francona noted after the game that Myers was in a significant amount of pain, so the team sent him to the hospital to get checked out. Francona added that initial X-rays on Myers returned negative, but the outfielder is expected to undergo further testing. The club should have an update on Myers' status Tuesday, but even if he avoided a major injury, he seems likely to require a stint on the injured list.
