Looked at the box score from tonight’s Indy game and Tucker was 0-4 with 3 strikeouts. He is struggling. I wonder if he will ever return to Pittsburgh. I have my doubts.

I don't think he will. He's one of the most likely to be DFA'd when they need to open a spot on the 4 man roster.

yeah, he is as good as gone if he doesn't start to hit at Indy. I think Hembree is pitching for his release too.

I would expect Tucker to go foreign at some point.

Tucker is toast.

Just wait Hayes will be batting around 230 with 5 hr by the end of season. Another guy that can`t hit and is overhyped. Kid was smart to grab that money.

That'll derail this thread. It's about Tucker.

Hayes is a .280 hitter. It's his Errors that I'd question.

why do you think Hayes can't hit? Currently has 288 batting average, zero homers but missed one by a quarter inch when it hit the basket vs. the Cubs. In that game they showed a stat where he hits the ball harder by exit velocity than all but a few players.

He doesn't strike out an excessive amount either. I think it is more likely that he hits better as the season goes on.

Let's take the "hayes" discussion elsewhere- if it even warrants it.

Should we close this thread and start one called Tucker can't hit AAA pitching?

Tucker DFA to make room for Yu Chang .

Someone will pick him up and he will become Cory Segar. :'(
