Date	Question	Answer
2011-12-14 13:00:00	What do you see from Wil Myers? Similar to the previously mentioned Montero comment (~300, 30 hrs)? Thanks Jason. Your candor and facial hair are an inspiration. (Humbert Humbert from On the road)	My facial hair is a lazy two-week beard; not much to brag on. Myers could end up in that statistical ballpark, yes (emphasis on could). (Jason Parks)
2011-12-02 14:00:00	You had a lot of great things to say about Wil Myers, but you tweeted that he's not a top 10. Really? (KCLoyal from work)	Really. I have a lot of great things to say about prospects who are not among the top 10 in all of baseball. It's hardly an insult. (Kevin Goldstein)
2011-10-17 13:00:00	On your MLU the other day you said Wil Myers is getting great reports from the AFL - care to elaborate? I know the numbers have been good there, but I know enough not to really trust AFL numbers. (Rob from Alaska)	He just finally looks healthy and comfortable. That infection bothered him much of the season, and while I'm not ready to give him a complete mulligan, it was a factor. (Kevin Goldstein)
2011-10-04 13:00:00	What happened to Wil Myers? (Bill from ON)	Assorted injuries and developmental hurdles. Didn't set the world on fire and the ball didn't explode off the bat in '11 like it did in '10, but he's still super young and his projections haven't changed (at least for me). (Jason Parks)
2011-09-02 14:00:00	I've read conflicting reports on Wil Myers about his soft numbers this year. Is it injury related or are there some effort questions around him? ETA second half of 2013? (Austin Milbarge from Washington D.C.)	It's hard to say. The knee injury, and resulting infection certainly effected him, but he's never looked like the guy we saw last year. (Kevin Goldstein)
