Parker Meadows Diagnosed With Upper-Arm Nerve Issue
3 mins agoDetroit Tigers outfielder Parker Meadows (arm) has been diagnosed with an upper arm nerve issue. The 25-year-old has been shut down from baseball activities for the time being. Manager A.J. Hinch noted that it is "too early" to make an assessment for Opening Day. Meadows sustained this injury last weekend and underwent further testing. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status. However, if this injury continues to linger, he may be in danger of missing the start of the regular season. For the time being, Wenceel Perez should have an increased role during camp and could open the campaign as the starting center fielder with Matt Vierling (shoulder) sidelined as well. After a slow start to the 2024 campaign, Meadows turned the corner in the second half as he held a strong .296/.340/.500 line with six home runs. When cleared to return, he is a viable depth outfielder in all formats as he possesses a solid combination of power and speed.
