Myers not involved in Jacksonville bar fight, says witness

The Brett Myers story continues...

Scheduled to begin a minor league rehab assignment Saturday night, Myers was scratched early in the morning after telling team officials he injured his eye playing catch with his four-year-old son, Kolt.

A few hours later, he changed the story, saying he banged his head - and thus, his eye - after getting out of an SUV following a night out with his wife and friends.

But an anonymous tip here to the blog mentioned there was a bar fight at Shannon's Pub in Jacksonville Friday night.

I just got off the phone with a witness who was at Shannon's that night.

"He was there, but he wasn't in a bar fight," the witness said. "He wasn't even in the room (where it took place)."
