    N-no. I envisioned it as more of a yelling from the sidelines type thing in my mind. I dunno. Kids these days at their minor league baseball games with their social medias... Like I said, low threshold in the moment.

    When's the last time you saw Kyle Tucker play baseball?

    Thing about Tucker is that being at Triple A is r****ding his development. It starts to happen with some prospects. He will definitely be the 26 man next season. Reddick is up after 2020. Tucker is your replacement for him. He needs the reps at the big level.

    He's been hitting .265 in AAA for the year. He's still knocking a juice ball out of the park, but I don't think a .265 AAA BA will translate well in the pros. Tucker needs to dominate at the AAA level to be worthy of adding to the roster.

    Recent Astros call ups AAA BA:
    Yordan Alvarez .343
    Tony Kemp .335
    Tyler White .333

    He was hitting .332 last year in AAA...

    Way off topic, but Josh Rojas has a better career AAA BA, OBP, Slugging, OPS, and wOBA than Alvarez and Tucker.
