Astros: Don’t sweat Kyle Tucker’s slow start to his MLB career

The Astros are second in the American League in runs scored with 497, behind the Red Sox 525 runs via ESPN. With that run production and the pitching staff limiting the opposition to 306 runs, the Astros are pretty good. They have a five-game lead in the AL West over the Mariners, but only the third best record in the big leagues. The Red Sox and Yankees both have a higher win percentage, but the Yankees have played four fewer games.

With Carlos Correa on the DL, the Astros have tried to piece together a lineup.
