Kyle Tucker Returns To The Lineup
3 years agoHouston Astros outfielder Kyle Tucker (back) is returning to the starting lineup on Tuesday and will hit sixth and start in right field against Oakland Athletics right-hander Chris Bassitt. Tucker is back in there after missing the last three games because of back spasms. The 24-year-old has been pretty steady in 2021 with a .264/.323/.476 slash line, 13 home runs, 47 RBI and five stolen bases in his 73 games. Tucker hasn't been that good of late, but his back could've been affecting his performance. He's been really good against right-handers this year, slashing .287/.355/.521 with eight of his 13 home runs, 25 RBI and five stolen bases in 187 plate appearances, so he's a fine DFS play on Tuesday in his return to the lineup.
