Jake Meyers

HOU • CF • #

Jake Meyers (calf) is not in the lineup for Monday’s series opener against the Guardians.

Meyers appears likely to avoid the injured list for now after exiting Sunday’s game against the Dodgers with right calf tightness. The 29-year-old center fielder is day-to-day for now. It’ll be rookie Kenedy Corona taking over in center field in his absence.

Recap

Colton Gordon yielded five runs in 5 2/3 innings Monday in a loss to the Guardians.

He had the excuse of pitching in Coors Field in a poor first start this month, but Gordon was facing an ice-cold Guardians lineup tonight and struggled again. The loss leaves him 3-2 with a 4.76 ERA, and it doesn’t seem like he’ll start again before the break, which could lead to a demotion to Triple-A.

Brenton Doyle is back in the lineup for Monday’s contest against the Red Sox.

Doyle returns to center field on Monday night in Boston after receiving a three-game mental break to attempt to clear his head and work on adjustments. The 27-year-old outfielder is hitting just .206/.256/.336 with seven homers and nine steals through 76 games this season on the heels of last year’s impressive 23-homer, 30-steal breakthrough campaign.
