Taking seat Sunday Meyers is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Angels, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Impact Meyers has gone 2-for-8 with a walk, a double, a stolen base, two RBI and two runs through two contests but will sit for the second time in Houston's first four games of the season. Joey Loperfido will shift to center field Sunday while Yordan Alvarez picks up a start in the outfield.

Busy performance in win Meyers went 2-for-5 with a double, two RBI, two runs scored and a stolen base in Saturday's 11-9 win over the Angels.
Impact Meyers did a little bit of everything Saturday, showing off both power and speed with his first extra-base hit and steal of the year. The 29-year-old has close to an everyday role in center field in store for 2026, but the right-handed-hitting Meyers hasn't turned in an OPS higher than .727 in any of his prior four seasons and may struggle for consistent fantasy value.

Impact He dealt with back spasms over the weekend but is back as expected Monday. Meyers seems like a pretty safe bet to open the year as the Astros' starting center fielder as long as he's healthy.

Expected back Monday Meyers (back) is likely to resume playing in Grapefruit League games Monday, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Impact Meyers was a late scratch from Friday's spring contest due to back spasms. He's due to go through a full workout Saturday, which will help the team evaluate how the 29-year-old is feeling and whether he can return to the lineup after a few days of rest.
FEBRUARY 28 • ROTOWIRE
Battling back spasms Meyers was scratched from the lineup for Friday's Grapefruit League game against Washington due to back spasms, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
Impact Meyers has gone 1-for-5 with an RBI and a walk in two games this spring, and he'll stay put on the bench Friday rather than risk making his injury worse.
FEBRUARY 27 • ROTOWIRE
Settles at $3.55 million Meyers agreed to a one-year, $3.55 million contract with the Astros on Thursday to avoid arbitration, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports.
Impact Meyers' batting average jumped up from .219 in the 2024 regular season to .292 in 2025, although a calf strain forced him to miss two months and limited him to just three homers, 24 RBI, 53 runs scored and 16 steals on the year. The 30-year-old's increased efficiency will grant him a $1.25 million raise for the 2026 campaign, and he'll likely open the year as Houston's everyday center fielder.
