Kyle Tucker Returns To Lineup In Two-Hole
3 years agoHouston Astros outfielder Kyle Tucker (foot) is back in right field and is hitting second on Wednesday against Oakland Athletics left-hander Cole Irvin. Tucker hadn't played since leaving Saturday's game against the Seattle Mariners with a foot injury that didn't have any structural damage. Overall, Tucker has hit just .239 (37-for-155), but he does have eight home runs, 29 RBI, 17 runs scored and nine stolen bases in 179 plate appearances, and he remains an intriguing fantasy asset because of his power/speed profile. He's hit just .192 (9-for-47) with one of his eight home runs against left-handed pitchers, though, so those in DFS may want to stay away from Tucker in his return to the lineup.
