7/22/15 6-foot-2, 175-pound frame. Pitched out of a high three-quarter slot. Fastball sat 77-78 (down from the 80-82 we have observed previously), while he showed good armspeed on a change-up with some sink at 66-67 and mixed in a curveball at 66-68.

Right-handed hitter started from an open stance, employing a knee-to-knee stride with armbar to a slightly open base. Contact-oriented approach and worked oppo gap in BP. Ran a 7.38 60-yard dash and in-game best 4.68 home-to-1B time. Showcased 78-mph exit velocity and 80-mph arm strength during workout. Arm strength would play up if he got his front foot around toward his target instead of landing open.

6/17/15 Lean frame with room to add strength (6-foot-2, 175-pounds). Pitched one inning out of a high three-quarter slot with high front side and back shoulder tilt. Fastball sat 77-78, while he also utilized a slow curveball at 63-64 that varied in shape around 11/5 and a change-up at 69-70.

6/17/15 6-foot-2, 175-pound right-handed hitter. Starts from slightly open stance, employs knee-to-knee stride to square. Armbar created during load/separation, rocks to backside leading to a significant amount of head and body movement.  Got injured during day one of event, so only logged two plate appearances. Showcased 79-mph arm strength in workout, using accurate, one-hop throws. Needs to improve reads and routes defensively. 

2/15/15 Myers pitches out of a high-3/4 slot from an up-tempo delivery with a high leg kick. He has a slightly upright finish, while staying on-line well toward his target. His fastball was fairly straight with occasional baby tail to it, while he exhibited a good feel for his change-up that had some late dive. His curveball is a big 12/6 and his slider has 3/4 action. He had a tendency to get on the side of both pitches, especially out of the stretch, on this day.

2/14/15 A primary pitcher, Myers starts from square stance and employs a short lift-and-replace stride. He loads his hands deep, while flashing some bat speed and barrel whip with a top hand roll at contact. His eyes stay level and his swing is repeatable. Defensively, Myers struggles to get consistent carry on his throws, as he strides open on release.

1/26/13 Myers showcased his defensive abilities in the outfield with athletic actions and good carry on throws of 78 mph to home plate. He showed an improved bat exit velocity of 76 mph in a solid round of batting practice. Myers used a short swing path to consistently line baseballs to all fields.

12/28/12 Myers showed potential as a hitter and as a pitcher. The long limbed prospect has an athletic frame that should fill out in time. He displayed a 71 mph bat exit speed that he used to consistently square baseballs to all fields. Myers has a short stroke from the right side with a strong lower half. He will need to work as a left handed hitter to further develop his skills from that side of the plate. Myers used a high 3/4 deliver to top out at 76 mph on the mound. He also commanded a 58 mph curveball that has an 11/5 break and a 66 mph changeup that showed good down action.
