Kyle Tucker - Aims for baseball activities soon Astros manager Joe Espada said Thursday that he's hopeful Tucker (lower leg) will be ready to begin baseball activities this weekend, Casey Drottar of MLB.com reports. Impact Tucker's recovery from a right shin contusion has come along more slowly than expected, but he does seem to have made some progress in recent days. Because he's already missed more than two weeks, Tucker could require a brief rehab assignment once he's deemed game-ready.
