San Diego Padres: Checking on the Wil Myers Experiment

Wil Myers is the San Diego Padres latest attempt to find a serviceable third baseman, with the likes of Christian Villanueva and Cory Spangenberg failing to claim the position as theirs this season and any worthy third base prospects still two-three years away from being MLB-ready.

Myers came to the Padres, along with Jose Castillo during the 2014 off-season as part of a three-team trade between the Padres, Washington Nationals, and Tampa Bay Rays. Since starting in center field on Opening Day of 2015, Myers has played five different positions over the years.
