Parker Meadows's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Detroit Tigers outfielder Parker Meadowshad a memorable Thursday night, belting a two-out grand slam to send the Tigers to a 4-3 win over the San Diego Padres. Meadows ended the game 2-for-4 with a run and four RBI. After his team was stifled by the Padres pitching all night, Meadows finally got to closer Robert Suarez on the final out of the game. Since his return from injury on Aug. 3, Meadows has been a solid contributor in all five categories. He is a decent deep-league option for the fantasy playoffs and could be a sleeper for next season.

Detroit Tigers outfielder Parker Meadows went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in Tuesday's victory versus the Seattle Mariners. Meadows was activated from the 10-day injured list on August 3 after missing nearly a month with a right hamstring strain and has gone 4-for-9 since. The young outfielder was off to a terrible start this season, but worked out some kinks in Triple-A Toledo and was starting to show signs of life before landing on the injured list. His strong return is a tiny sample size, but in deeper leagues, he could be worth the gamble late in the season with the waiver wire not offering many options with his upside. If everything were to click for Meadows, he could provide managers with some good pop and speed in the outfield. Meadows will look for multiple hits in his third straight game when the Tigers square off against George Kirby and the Seattle Mariners in a tough matchup.

Detroit Tigers outfielder Parker Meadows was activated from the IL after recovering from his hamstring issue. Meadows missed a month of games. He will bat seventh and play center field today against the Kansas City Royals. On the season, Meadows is hitting .131 with three home runs, five RBI, four stolen bases, and 11 runs scored in only 97 plate appearances. Meadows will look to improve his first-half line this month and should have an extended opportunity to play daily in Detroit.

Detroit Tigers outfielder Parker Meadows (hamstring) is likely to return this weekend, according to Evan Woodbery of MLive Media Group. Meadows has been sidelined since the start of July with a hamstring strain. The 24-year-old logged three rehab games with Triple-A Toledo earlier this week. Meadows has looked great at Triple-A this season, boasting an excellent .292/.392/.503 line with eight home runs and 19 swiped bags. However, in the big leagues, he has had trouble finding consistency with an underwhelming .131/.247/.286 line. Meadows could be worth a look in deeper redraft leagues once he is cleared to return, as he was riding a three-game hitting streak before hitting the injured list last month.

Detroit Tigers outfielder Parker Meadows (hamstring) is starting his minor-league rehab assignment with Triple-A Toledo on Sunday. Meadows will serve as the Mud Hens' designated hitter on Sunday and will then move to center field early next week. The 24-year-old went on the 10-day injured list back on July 8 with a strained right hamstring but could return to the Tigers late next week and play regularly against right-handed pitching. The former second-rounder in 2018 is worth considering as a waiver-wire pickup in deep-mixed leagues when he's on the cusp of a return for his power/speed profile. So far in 72 games in the big leagues since debuting in 2023, Meadows has struggled at the plate, slashing .191/.298/.335 with six home runs, 18 RBI and 12 runs scored in 242 plate appearances for the Tigers.
