4 days agoDetroit Tigers outfielder Parker Meadows (arm), who has been shut down from throwing since Feb. 22 as a result of a nerve issue in his right arm, will require at least four more weeks of rest, according to manager A.J. Hinch. Meadows was expected to open the season on the injured list, but this pushes his timetable well beyond the 10-day window that was anticipated. A return sometime in May looks like the most optimistic outcome at this point. Wenceel Perez looks like the beneficiary of Meadows' absence. Last season, Perez slashed .242/.300/.383 with nine home runs, 37 RBI, and nine stolen bases across 112 games. With some ability to produce across categories and currently penciled in as the leadoff hitter for Detroit, the switch-hitter offers some fantasy value in deep leagues, at least while he's getting regular playing time.--Jarod Rupp - RotoBaller

6 days agoDetroit Tigers outfielders Parker Meadows (arm) and Matt Vierling (shoulder) are still not throwing as they work their way back to try and re-join the Tigers lineup. Meadows was shut down after just one Spring Training game with a nerve issue, and Manager A.J. Hinch said Meadows is making steps in his recovery but also confirmed last Friday that Meadows will begin the season on the injured list. The Tigers plan to have Wenceel Perez step in as the primary center fielded while Meadows is out, and Riley Greene could slide to center at times as well. Vierling also played just one game this Spring Training before being sidelined by a rotator cuff strain and will begin the season on the injured list, opening playing time for Justyn-Henry Malloy and Andy Ibanez.--Zach Thompson - RotoBaller

1 week 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.--Andy Webb - RotoBaller

2 weeks agoDetroit Tigers outfielder Parker Meadows (arm) is reportedly progressing with a nerve issue in his arm, though he has not yet begun throwing. Meadows has been shut down from baseball activities for nearly three weeks after suffering numbness in his forearm. However, he's been able to complete non-throwing defensive drills and some one-handed swings during his rehab. "Still a little numb on the forearm," Meadows said Wednesday morning. "Might be something I have to fight through because the strength is still there." The 25-year-old still has a shot to be ready for Opening Day and will slot in as the team's center fielder when healthy. He's currently going off the boards outside the top 200 in fantasy drafts.--Alex Ciulla

3 weeks agoThere is no clear timetable for Detroit Tigers outfielder Parker Meadows' (arm) return this spring from a nerve issue that he's been dealing with in his right arm, according to the Detroit Free Press' Evan Petzold. According to a doctor, the Tigers must wait for Meadows' musculocutaneous nerve to "wake up," which could take anywhere from two to six weeks. The 25-year-old's nerve issue isn't a long-term concern, and while the Tigers are still hopeful he will be ready by Opening Day in late March, there's also a good chance Meadows will have to open the 2025 season on the injured list. It makes him a pretty risky fantasy pick at this point for outfield depth in mixed leagues. Meadows hit .296/.340/.500 with six home runs in 47 regular-season games after his return in August last year after coming back from a strained hamstring. When healthy, he should be a regular outfielder for the Tigers.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
