Tucker is getting a routine day off Thursday against the Red Sox, Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle reports.
EDGE Analysis
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.
Anytime you have a red hot player, what you want to do is sit them with the hopes that they cool off. Geeze. Baseball isn't that hard. Tired of coaches over thinking.
