INJURIES

Remains out Saturday Tucker (back) is unavailable to start Saturday's game in Cleveland, Danielle Lerner of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Impact Tucker, who was a late scratch Friday with back spasms, might be available as a pinch hitter Saturday or Sunday. During his absence, however long it may be, Chas McCormick figures to get the majority of the playing time in right field.

Scratched with back spasms Tucker was scratched from Friday's lineup against Cleveland with back spasms, Danielle Lerner of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Impact It's unclear whether Tucker will return to action Saturday, or if he'll require a more significant absence. Robel Garcia enters the lineup to play third base, with Taylor Jones moving to left, Abraham Toro moving to first base and Chas McCormick shifting to right field,

Drives in two, scores once Tucker went 2-for-4 with two RBI, one run scored and a walk in Monday's 9-7 loss to the Orioles.
Impact Tucker walked and hit a pair of singles to reach base safely three times. He drove in Yordan Alvarez in the fourth inning and Michael Brantley in the seventh. Tucker scored in the ninth frame on a Robel Garcia single. The 24-year-old is slashing .269/.331/.492 with 13 home runs and 46 RBI in 290 plate appearances. He is batting .346 over his last seven games.
JUNE 29, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
On base four times in return Tucker went 2-for-3 with two walks, a double, an RBI and a run scored in Wednesday's 13-0 win over Baltimore.
Impact The Astros reinstated Tucker from the COVID-19-related injury list Wednesday, and the right fielder didn't miss a beat. He'd hit in eight straight contests prior to his placement on the IL and extended the streak to nine games, during which the outfielder is 15-for-38 (.395) with eight extra-base hits and nine RBI. Tucker rejoins a team whose offense has been clicking, averaging 8.1 runs per game over a 10-game winning streak.
JUNE 24, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Makes return from IL The Astros reinstated Tucker (illness) from the COVID-19-related injured list Wednesday, Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Impact Though Tucker never tested positive for the coronavirus, the Astros were able to place him on the COVID-19 IL in accordance with health and safety protocols while battled a stomach virus that caused him to lose 10 pounds. He's apparently been able to regain some strength after resuming workouts over the weekend, and he'll likely slot back into a starting role in the outfield in Wednesday's series finale in Baltimore. Tucker's return will be most costly to Chas McCormick, who had started the last eight games in right field.

JUNE 21, 2021 • FANDUEL.COM
Could see mid-week return Manager Dusty Baker said Monday that Tucker (illness) is expected to return "mid to late this week," Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Impact Tucker has been on the COVID-19 injured list since Wednesday and lost 10 pounds while battling a stomach bug despite never testing positive for the virus. He felt good after taking batting practice Sunday, and the team was optimistic that the outfielder could return during the three-game series against Baltimore. While it's not yet clear when Tucker could be activated, he still appears to be relatively close to returning.

Should return in Baltimore Tucker (illness) felt good after taking batting practice Sunday and expects to be activated during the three-game series at Baltimore, which begins Monday, Danielle Lerner of the H...
Impact The 24-year-old landed on the COVID-19 injured list Wednesday and never tested positive for the virus, though he lost 10 pounds while battling a stomach bug before resuming workouts Friday. The Astros may want to see how Tucker handles some more strenuous work before activating him, but he should be able to rejoin the active roster within the next couple days.
JUNE 20, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Working out again Tucker (illness) is working out for the second straight day Saturday at Minute Maid park, Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Impact According to manager Dusty Baker, the 24-year-old has a chance of returning during the Astros' early-week series at Baltimore. Tucker was on an absolute tear before landing on the COVID-19 injured list Wednesday, hitting .356 with three homers and 15 RBI over his last 17 games.
JUNE 19, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Moves to COVID IL Tucker is feeling under the weather Wednesday and was placed on the COVID-19 injured list, Julia Morales of AT&T SportsNet Southwest reports.
Impact Tucker sat out Tuesday due to the ailment and remained unavailable Wednesday, and he's now sidelined due to the league's health and safety protocols. The 24-year-old hasn't necessarily tested positive for the virus, and it's unclear when he's expected to rejoin the active roster. Abraham Toro was recalled from Triple-A Sugar Land in a corresponding move.
JUNE 16, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Unavailable Wednesday Tucker (illness) isn't available for Wednesday's game against the Rangers, Alyson Footer of MLB.com reports.
Impact Tucker was held out of Tuesday's lineup since he was feeling under the weather, and he's not yet feeling better Wednesday. The 24-year-old won't be available off the bench, and his next chance to return will be in Thursday's series opener against the White Sox. Chas McCormick will start in right field and bat seventh Wednesday.
JUNE 16, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Out with illness Manager Dusty Baker said that Tucker is not in the starting lineup Tuesday due to feeling under the weather, Danielle Lerner of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Impact Tucker's absence from the lineup initially seemed strange given that Houston had a day off Monday and is facing right-hander Kyle Gibson on Tuesday. Now it's known that the outfielder isn't starting because he's feeling sick, though Baker didn't comment on whether he could be an option to pinch hit. It's also unclear whether Tucker will be able to play in Wednesday's series finale.
JUNE 15, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Not starting Tuesday Tucker is not in the starting lineup Tuesday against the Rangers, Danielle Lerner of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Impact Tucker is not reported to be dealing with an injury at this point, though it's a curious time to give the outfielder an outfielder a day off; Houston is facing right-hander Kyle Gibson on Tuesday following an off day Monday, while Tucker is coming off a 3-for-5 performance with a home run in Sunday's series finale against the Twins. Chas McCormick is starting in right field and batting seventh Tuesday.
JUNE 15, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Goes deep again Tucker went 3-for-5 with a two-run homer, a double and two runs scored in Sunday's 14-3 win over Minnesota.
Impact Tucker launched a two-run shot in the fourth inning, giving him 13 on the year and his second in as many days. The 24-year-old outfielder has gone 13-for-35 (.371) with seven extra-base hits and eight RBI during his active eight-game hitting streak. His season OPS is up to .832 through 264 plate appearances.

Homers in loss Tucker went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 5-2 loss to the Twins.
Impact Tucker and Robel Garcia went back-to-back in the seventh inning to bring Houston within two, but a lineup that mustered just five hits on the day didn't have enough to overcome Minnesota pitching. It was just the second long ball in 21 games for Tucker, who belted 10 over his 42 contests. The lack of home runs hasn't affected Tucker's offensive production elsewhere. The right fielder has hit safely in 11 of 12 games, going 19-for-51 (.373) with a .992 OPS during that run.
JUNE 13, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Delivers three RBI in loss Tucker went 1-for-4 with a double and three RBI in Thursday's 12-8 loss to Boston.
Impact Tucker delivered all three baserunners with a two-out double in the fifth inning, which extended his hitting streak to five games. He's 8-for-22 with four doubles and five RBI during the streak. He's been on a tear since early May, batting .348 (39-for-112) with 24 RBI over 28 games. Tucker ranks second on the team with 40 RBI this season.
JUNE 11, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Day off Thursday Tucker is getting a routine day off Thursday against the Red Sox, Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Impact It's worth noting that he fouled a ball off his knee Tuesday, but it sounds like more of a rest day than an injury situation. Tucker has been on a tear at the plate for a few weeks, hitting .344/.408/.645 with six home runs and three steals over his last 93 at-bats. Chas McCormick will start in right field and bat seventh.

Houston Astros' Kyle Tucker joins Ben Verlander on 'Flippin' Bats'
Plates four in win Tucker went 3-for-5 with four RBI and a run scored in Monday's 11-2 win over Boston.
Impact All three of his hits were singles, and two of them knocked in a pair of runs each. Tucker bounced back from a slow start to the season by posting a .296 batting average in 27 games in May. The outfielder is up to a .240/.310/.469 slash line with 11 home runs, 35 RBI, 35 runs scored and five stolen bases through 216 plate appearances overall.

MLB Weekly Roundup: Tatis Jr. is the first two-time 'Six-Tool Player of Week'!
Smacks 11th homer Tucker went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Sunday's 7-4 win over San Diego.
Impact The outfielder went yard in the first inning off San Diego starter Blake Snell. Tucker's homer gave Houston a 4-0 lead, and they never trailed in the contest. The 24-year-old is slashing .230/.303/.465 with 11 homers, 31 RBI, 34 runs scored and five stolen bases through 211 plate appearances. He's collected four extra-base hits in his last five games.
MAY 30, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Laces two doubles Friday Tucker went 2-for-5 with a walk and two doubles in Friday's 10-3 extra-innings loss to the Padres.
Impact Hitting third for Houston, Tucker collected both two-baggers off Dinelson Lamet in the first few innings, but the team's 1-2-4 hitters went a combined 0-for-14 around him. The 24-year-old continues to surge, and over his last 17 games Tucker is slashing .349/.438/.698 with five homers, three steals, 12 RBI and 17 runs.
MAY 29, 2021 • ROTOWIRE
Moves to two hole Tucker batted second and went 2-for-4 with a double and a run scored in Tuesday's 9-2 loss to the Dodgers.
Impact Tucker had been dropped to the lower third of the order amid a season-opening slump, but his bat turned around the last two weeks. Since May 7, when the Astros came off a nine-game road trip, Tucker is 21-for-64 (.328) with 10 extra-base hits and 13 RBI over 17 games. With Michael Brantley, the normal two-hole hitter, sitting out Tuesday due to a leg injury, Tucker's resurgence with the stick made manager Dusty Baker comfortable promoting him in the order.
