Outfielder Kyle Tucker had a solid season for the Houston Astros in 2020.

In 2020, the Houston Astros battled injuries with almost every starter, but one guy stood out — Kyle Tucker. He played in his official rookie season in 2020, because of the rule of 130 or more at bats. As an up and down player from 2018-2019, Tucker was a hyped prospect with “raw power” according to the Minute Maid jumbotron.

The Astros opened with an outfield of Michael Brantley, George Springer and Josh Reddick, but all these players are off contract as of now.
