    Kyle Tucker through 9 games: 12-34 (.324), 4 HR, 11 RBI, 5 doubles.

    Astros as a team through 6 games: Batting .178, 2 HR, 11 RBI, 2 doubles.

    It's still early...

    Tucker has 6 strikeouts which would tie him for 3rd with Altuve. Yordan has 7 and Walker leads the team with 9.

    Legitimately too early to worry about either of those guys and happily Peña only has 3 so far.

    Tucker can win the MVP this year and we will still win this trade.

    If Vlad Jr gets a half billion, there was no way we would ever resign Tucker

    The cubs have to win the WS this season in order to have a chance at winning the trade.

    The Tucker trade has been amended to third baseman Isaac Paredes, right-hander Hayden Wesneski, prospect Cam Smith, and Chick Fila with Paredes homer off the foul pole.

    Good for Tuck, he wasn’t gonna get a big contract here.

    we weren’t ever gonna pay him and we got a completely fair return. I think history will look back on us winning this trade.

    Cubs pay Tucker $400 mil, that team will surround him with only half a team for the duration.

    Tucker has sucked in the playoffs and probably has been a bigger part of us not winning it all last couple of years. So I'll reserve judgement based on his post season performance

    Kyle Tucker is not an Astro. Neither is Garret Cole or Carlos Beltran or Randy Johnson or multiple other people.

    **** 'em.
