Overview

• In Thursday’s game at Oracle Park, Myers shattered his bat over his knee and spiked his helmet after a fifth-inning strikeout, drawing the one-word rebuke “Bush” from NBC Sports Bay Area’s Mike Krukow.
• The 29-year-old center fielder has a history of on-field meltdowns, including last year’s incident in which he kicked a clubhouse door after an ejection and fractured his ankle.
• Former Red Sox infielder Jeff Frye slammed Myers’ behavior on social media, calling his tantrums “embarrassing to your organization, your teammates and your family.”
• Despite his volatile temperament, Myers is enjoying a breakout season with the Marlins, batting .300 in 160 at-bats while hitting four home runs and stealing eight bases.
• The Cincinnati Reds are weighing a potential trade for Myers, attracted by his consistent contact and standout performance against southpaw pitching to bolster their lineup.
