Tucker went 2-for-6 with a walk, two RBI and two stolen bases in Friday's 10-9 extra-innings loss to the Guardians.
EDGE Analysis
It was a productive night for the outfielder, but Tucker has been feast or famine lately -- he has four multi-hit performances in his last 10 games but didn't manage a hit in any of the other six. Since the beginning of May, he's slashing a mediocre .262/.307/.413 with three of his eight homers and five of his 10 steals on the season.

Tucker went 3-for-4 with two doubles, two runs and a stolen base Thursday in a 5-2 win against the Angels.
EDGE Analysis
Though Tucker didn't notch any RBI in the contest, his ability to get on base resulted in him scoring two of Houston's five runs. The big performance was a nice turnaround after the outfielder notched just one hit over his previous 14 at-bats. Tucker is on pace to get near last season's numbers with seven homers, 33 RBI and eight steals through 55 games, and he's posting a career-high 11.4 percent walk rate along with a career-best 14.3 percent strikeout rate.

Tucker's absence from the lineup for Sunday's game against the Athletics is being labeled as an off day, Mark Berman of Fox 26 Houston reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Astros still included Tucker in their initial lineup released earlier Sunday before scratching him, but unless manager Dusty Baker notes after the game that the outfielder is nursing a minor injury, fantasy managers can feel comfortable about his availability heading into Houston's upcoming seven-game week. With Tucker on the bench for the series finale in Oakland, Corey Julks, Jake Meyers and Chas McCormick will form the Houston outfield from left to right.

Tucker was scratched from the lineup for Sunday's game versus the Athletics due to an unspecified issue, Chandler Rome of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Astros have yet to provide an explanation behind why Tucker was scratched, but the team will likely provide an update later Sunday. Corey Julks will enter the lineup as a replacement for Tucker, starting in left field while batting sixth with Chas McCormick moving to right field.

The effort concluded a very productive six-game homestand for Tucker, during which he went 7-for-23 with a home, seven RBI, two runs scored and a stolen base. Overall this season, he's maintained a 124 wRC+ and .350 wOBA across 192 plate appearances.
