Meadows went 3-for-5 with a solo home run and an additional run scored in Wednesday's 7-1 win over the Rays. Meadows hit his ninth home run of the season to start things off in the bottom of the first inning, and he continued to pace Detroit's offense the rest of the game. The young outfielder has been a big reason why Detroit is unexpectedly closing in on a playoff spot. Since the beginning of August, Meadows is batting .291 with six home runs, 23 RBI and 26 runs scored in 43 games while typically batting leadoff against righties.

Meadows went 2-for-4 with a double, an RBI and a run scored in Tuesday's 3-1, 10-inning win over the Royals. Meadows batted ninth with Kansas City starting lefty Cole Ragans, but he still managed to make a big impact, delivering a go-ahead RBI single in the top of the 10th inning. The young outfielder has rebounded in a big way from a tough start to the season. Meadows was batting .096 through 32 games when he was demoted to Triple-A Toledo in early May. In 40 games since getting called back up in July, he's batting .310.

Meadows went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 4-2 loss to the Orioles. Meadows launched his eighth home run of the season in the ninth inning as the Tigers tried to climb out of a 4-0 hole. While that effort was unsuccessful, fantasy managers can still enjoy the recent production from the young outfielder. Meadows is sporting an .875 OPS in September with three long balls and 13 RBI across 12 games. He should continue to see ample opportunities to produce as Detroit fights for a playoff spot down the stretch.

Meadows went 2-for-3 with two walks, a solo home run, two additional runs scored and three total RBI in Tuesday's 11-0 win over the Rockies. Meadows has been rolling lately, as he's batting .381 over his last five games with four extra-base hits and 12 RBI. The 24-year-old is starting to live up to his prospect pedigree, and while his season stat line might not reflect it, he's turning into a true fantasy contributor. Meadows should continue to pace Detroit's offense as a dynamic leadoff hitter against righties.

Meadows went 2-for-5 with a walk, a double, a run scored and two RBI in Sunday's 9-1 win over the Athletics. Meadows delivered his third multi-hit effort in his last four contests, and he's batting .299 since the beginning of August. The 24-year-old has a nice mix of power and speed, but he struggled to make consistent enough contact early in his MLB career to really put his skills to use. It looks like Meadows is starting to turn a corner, and the Tigers should continue to reward him with regular playing time.
