Parker Meadows To Open Season On Injured List
2 hours agoDetroit Tigers outfielder Parker Meadows (arm) will open the regular season on the 10-day injured list, according to manager A.J. Hinch. This was expected to happen considering Meadows is still dealing with a nerve issue in his right arm. Meadows hasn't made much progress over the last few weeks, so his timetable to return to the field is unclear right now. The absence of Meadows means that Wenceel Perez has a path to everyday playing time in Detroit. Last season, Perez slashed .242/.300/.383 with nine home runs, 37 RBI, and nine stolen bases across 112 games. There could be some deep league value from Perez, assuming he gets everyday at-bats to begin the season.
