Parker Meadows On The Bench Against Lefty
8 months agoDetroit Tigers outfielders Parker Meadows and Kerry Carpenter are both on the bench on Monday with the team facing a left-hander. With Meadows and Carpenter on the bench, Matt Vierling will start in center field and bat leadoff, while Mark Canha will start in left field and hit fifth against New York Mets left-hander Sean Manaea. The 24-year-old Meadows started in all three of the team's first three games and went 1-for-10 with a triple and one run scored. Carpenter has been on the bench now for both games that the team has faced a southpaw, which will limit his fantasy appeal in mixed leagues after he impressed in 2023 with the Tigers. Jake Rogers is serving as Detroit's designated hitter on Monday in the series opener against New York.
