Austin Meadows has arrived. I will not post my awkward TMZ-style video in the parking lot, but he says he's excited to be here and ready to get started.

FROM MONDAY NIGHT:
According to a report from Evan Woodbery, the Detroit Tigers have traded Isaac Paredes to the Tampa Bay Rays.
Woodbery is reporting that the Tigers have traded Paredes for outfielder, Austin Meadows.
Look for Meadows to be the starting LF against right-handed pitchers.
In 2021, Meadows batted.234 with 27 home runs and 106 RBIs in 142 games with the Rays.
This seems like a great deal for the Tigers.
The Tigers have swung a deal for an outfielder, acquiring Austin Meadows from the Tampa Bay Rays for infielder Isaac Paredes and 2022 draft pick.
