Astros' Jake Meyers: Sitting out Sunday
Meyers is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Tigers.
Meyers is hitless so far in the series, though he flashed the leather Friday with an incredible catch to rob Riley Greene of a homer. That defense will keep him in the lineup most days and afford him time to build on his nice start at the dish (.254/.315/.414). Meyers has already set a new career high with six steals and is on pace for a new career high in home runs.

Astros' Jake Meyers: Caps rally with homer
Meyers went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Friday's 6-3 win over the Athletics.
The Astros only scored in the fourth inning Friday, with Meyers providing half of their runs with his homer. The outfielder has three long balls over his last eight games, batting .448 (13-for-29) with nine RBI in that span. On the year, he has a strong .300/.369/.545 slash line with six long balls, 21 RBI, 14 runs scored and two stolen bases through 123 plate appearances. Meyers had some trouble sticking in the lineup early on, but he's operated as a near-everyday option in center field since May 7. As long as he keeps hitting well, he's got a starting job, even with Chas McCormick back in the mix.

Meyers went 3-for-4 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in Saturday's loss to the Brewers.

Astros' Jake Meyers: Goes to bench for series finale
Meyers is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Tigers.
Meyers had started in center field in four of the Astros' past five games while recording four hits in 16 at-bats during that stretch. He seems to be the Astros' preferred option in center field for the time being, but he'll give way to rookie Joey Loperfido in the series finale.

Astros' Jake Meyers: Two straight starts
Meyers went 2-for-4 with a triple and an RBI on Wednesday against the Yankees.
Meyers had emerged as one of the primary playing-time losers as a result of Joey Loperfido's promotion. However, Loperfido has sat in each of Houston's last two games, and Meyers has delivered on the opportunity to start those contests by going a combined 3-for-8. Meyers is still likely to lose out in the long term, but the Astros may continue to give him run as Lopefido finds his footing in the big leagues.

Meyers will take a seat for the third game in a row, with two absences coming against right-handed pitching and one coming versus a lefty.
