Is There Concern for the Offensive Production of the Astros Outfield?

With spring games coursing on over the weekend, the Astros took on the Cardinals Friday followed with the Yankees and the Nationals throughout the weekend. Winning against the Cardinals on Friday but falling short Saturday and yesterday, the Astros finish the weekend 1-2 rolling into another fresh week of spring games. Noting some changes around the field with Altuve in left-field now followed by Paredes plugged in at third and rotating prospects around the infield, the Astros look to be stringing things along in determining spots before the start of the season. With the infield looking pretty solid lots of attention has now turned to the outfield, not in regards to their production on defense but rather their production on offense. Attaining his first hits this spring training followed with two RBI's yesterday, Jake Meyers had himself a day with many raising question if this can be sustained in the long run. With Altuve the leadoff hitter moving from the infield and Yordan now mostly the Astros DH, should there be a concern with the offensive production in the outfield roughly pertaining to the backend of the lineup?
