Jake Meyers Drawing Trade Interest
The Athletic's Ken Rosenthal and Katie Woo report that Houston Astros center fielder Jake Meyers is drawing some trade interest this offseason after coming off a modest offensive breakout in 2025. The Astros are open to moving him for a controllable major-league starter, according to people briefed on their talks. Meyers is projected to earn $3.5 million in the first of his two years remaining of club control, and the interest in him has been considerable. The 29-year-old has a great glove, but Houston could be skeptical of him repeating his offensive performance in 2025, in which he slashed .292/.354/.373 with only three homers, 24 RBI, 53 runs, and 16 steals in 343 at-bats. He played in only 104 games due to right-calf issues. In almost 1,200 prior plate appearances before this year, Meyers hit only .228 with a .662 OPS. The Phillies, Mets, Rays, Orioles, Diamondbacks, and Royals are among the teams looking for upgrades in center field.
