Meyers resumed running and baseball activity in his calf rehab, with Espada noting sprinting and increased running intensity. He’s also hitting and doing outfield work in Houston while the Astros are on the road. There’s no firm return timeline yet as he must build volume and intensity before taking live at-bats or a rehab assignment.

Across 89 games this season, Meyers posted a 115 OPS+ and is hitting .308, second on Houston to Peña. Peña leads the Astros’ offense, so Meyers’ return should add a trustworthy center-field option and deepen outfield depth as the season progresses. The Astros are monitoring progress from the road.

The plan hinges on Meyers’ conditioning; Espada emphasized progress rather than a schedule, underscoring that Meyers must raise volume and intensity to unlock live pitching. Fantasy managers should monitor Meyers’ reintegration for late-season depth and potential uptick in outfield opportunities.
