Wil Myers will make his debut with the Rays on Tuesday as the club saw significant adjustments in recent weeks.
Those adjustments are likely related to strikeouts. Myers struck out 140 times in the minors last year, fanning in 23.7 percent of his plate appearances.
His strikeout rate has been much the same this year -- 24.6 percent -- but has been down to 16 percent in June.
Myers has hit .339/.377/.696 this month.
