Detroit Tigers outfielder Austin Meadows has stepped away from on-field baseball activities for the remainder of the 2022 season.
Meadows, who has dealt with several injuries and illnesses since May, has been around the Tigers' clubhouse for workouts over the past few weeks and will continue to be with his teammates when the club is playing home games at Comerica Park.
For mental health reasons, Meadows has ended his season with one month remaining on the schedule.
"He wanted to share with everyone what he's going through," manager A.J. Hinch said. "I commend him for doing it.
