Astros designated OF Jake Meyers for assignment.

This is all about roster flexibility. Meyers is currently on the 60-day injured list with a fractured knee that he suffered in September, but all players are set to be activated off the 60-day injured list by the end of the day, so the Astros needed to free up a spot on the 40-man roster. They could look to sign the 30-year-old back on a minor league deal.
