Astros Recall Jacob Melton From Triple-A
The Houston Astros recalled outfielder Jacob Melton from Triple-A on Monday, adding speed to their bench. The 24-year-old last appeared with the club on July 29 and has slashed just .206/.270/.265 over 13 games this season. While Melton swiped 30 bases last year in the minors, a 37.8% strikeout rate in the majors has limited his opportunities. If Houston can find ways to get him on base, he could offer steals for fantasy managers in need. Otherwise, Melton's role will likely be limited, making him more of a watch-list option than an immediate add in most formats.
