4 years agoHouston Astros outfielder Kyle Tucker was placed on the injured list due to health and safety protocols. He hasn't tested positive for COVID-19 but missed his last two games after not feeling well. "Tucker just developed some symptoms," said general manager James Click. "So he's been placed in the health and safety protocols and hopefully it's a short-term thing and he's back very soon. We're not concerned, but we have to go through the protocols for MLB." It's unclear when Tucker will rejoin the team, but this is a tough blow for fantasy managers either way. The Astros outfielder was red hot at the plate before landing on the IL, hitting .371 (13-for-35) with two home runs and eight RBI across eight games. Abraham Torro was recalled from Triple-A Sugar Land in a corresponding move.--Brad Camara - RotoBaller
