Jake Meyers Continues To Rake, Astros Defeat A’s 6-3

Related Topics: Jake Meyers

We’ve all known for a while that Jake Meyers had plenty of promise. That 2021 debut, while not perfect, did enough to put Meyers on the radar, for die-hard and casual fans alike. But that unfortunate shoulder injury in that season’s ALDS derailed not only his 2022 season but also likely influenced his 2023 struggles. I was nearly certain the Astros would attempt to move him in an offseason trade. I mean, the defense was never in doubt, even with an average at best arm. The question always hinged on his bat. If that aspect of Meyers's profile ever turned the right corner, he would be a valuable player.
