Scott Jenstad told listeners to leave Parker Meadows on the wire unless they are in very deep leagues. He reminded everyone that Meadows hit only .244 with nine homers and nine steals in roughly a half-season last year, paired with a 25 % strike-out rate and a pedestrian 31 % hard-hit rate. Those numbers do not scream instant impact, and Jenstad doubts Detroit will hand him everyday at-bats the moment he is recalled. He summed it up as, “give me the guy who was actually good last year”—referring to Colton Cowser—over a stash whose track record is mostly tools and wish-casting.
