Kyle Tucker Sent Down
6 years agoThe Houston Astros optioned outfielder Kyle Tucker to the minors on Wednesday to make room for outfielder Jake Marisnick. With George Springer (shoulder) day-to-day, Marisnick could find himself in the starting lineup, although he was hitting under .200 with Houston before his demotion. Tucker had only seven hits in 45 at-bats (.156) in his first taste of the majors, but he'll surely be back up as bench depth in September.
