A Detroit Tigers second-round pick from 2018 is keeping company with players that are up for the MVP award in this particular category.
But, the outfielder had a dearth of playing time in May, June and July before getting back to consistent opportunities at the plate this month.
That’s one way to measure his improvement. Another is WAR, or wins above replacement, meant to measure a player’s overall value., Meadows has a 1.1 WAR this month, as measured by FanGraphs. His is the seventh-best WAR of any player in the game in August. Given the direction of the Tigers’ season, Meadows figures to get as much playing time as possible as Detroit prepares for next season. He’s surrounded by a group of young players that could be a piece of the puzzle in 2025, including third baseman Jace Jung, shortstop Trey Sweeney and catcher Dillon Dingler.
