Astros: The McCutchen Deal ups the Ante for Michael Brantley

For the past two seasons, Astros fans have called for Kyle Tucker to get promoted. He got his first shot last season and looked a little overmatched. While he didn’t have the best start to his career, fans were still in awe of his swing. Let’s avoid the comparisons at this time and focus on his future with the Astros. At the time of writing, he is penciled in as the everyday left fielder. In the middle of December, the front office has a decision to make before other targets go to other teams.

While the Astros have all the faith in the world in Tucker, they know how important depth is for a title contender.
