Parker Meadows is a fantasy baseball waiver wire pickup for Week 20 (2024). Target Parker Meadows as a top prospect free-agent add for fantasy baseball.
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 5% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: The Tigers' left-handed slugger has returned to the lineup with a bang, going 4-9 in his first two starts with a home run, triple, and two singles.
Meadows struggled badly in April and was sent down to Triple-A in May when his batting average cratered at .096.
But Meadows was crushing Triple-A pitching to the tune of a .292 average and .883 OPS. He also stole 19 bases there this season in just 51 games.

When Meadows arrived back in Detroit in early July, he looked great, going 4-11 at the plate in three starts before he injured his hamstring.
Meadows needed just four rehab starts in the minors to get back on track and was called back up to Detroit on August 3rd.
His .161 batting average might appear bleak, but consider that he's hitting .400 with two home runs in the five games that he's started in July and August. This is a five-tool player who is just now getting confidence and could have a major fantasy impact down the stretch.
