Detroit Tigers center fielder Parker Meadows has been shut down from baseball activities due to a nerve issue in his upper right arm.
Meadows, however, was not ruled out of the team’s season opener on March 27 against the host Los Angeles Dodgers.
“We’re going to wait and see,” Tigers manager A.J. Hinch said Saturday morning, per the Detroit Free Press. “We got to get that nerve firing again for him to resume baseball activities. It could be short. It could linger a little bit. No one has a firm timeline on when that could be.”
Meadows, 25, has been idle since playing in a spring training game against the Philadelphia Phillies last Saturday.
He batted .244 with nine home runs and 28 RBIs across 82 games for the Tigers last season.
