FACTS/FLUKES: Meadows, Boyd, C. Hernandez, Heaney, C. Santana

Meadows isn't quite back to his old form... When BaseballHQ's Arik Florimonte covered Austin Meadows (OF, TAM) on February 22, he concluded that his 152 combined days on the IL between MLB and MiLB from 2016-2020, as well as his struggles against LHP (.143 BA in '20), could potentially make him a risky proposition based on his ADP (84th overall per NFBC). While Arik acknowledged Meadows's upside as well, to this point in the 2021 campaign, the 26-year-old has posted a .218/.320/.483 line with 9 HR and 1 SB. Will he continue to be essentially a three-category contributor, or is there more in store for this season?
