Kyle Tucker Trending Toward Returning This Weekend
Chicago Cubs manager Craig Counsell said that outfielder Kyle Tucker (calf) is "trending" toward returning for the final series of the regular season this weekend against the division-rival St. Louis Cardinals, according to 670 The Score. Tucker has recovered slowly from a left-calf strain that has kept him out of action since early September, but he's been doing baseball activities this week and has rejoined the major-league squad at Wrigley Field. The Cubs definitely want to get the 28-year-old some at-bats this weekend before the playoffs start early next week. The former first-rounder has hit .270/.381/.472 with an .854 OPS, 22 home runs, 73 RBI, 89 runs scored, and 25 stolen bases in 489 at-bats in his first year with the Cubbies, and they are going to need him performing the way he can for them to make a deep run in October.
