Besides, the former Houston Astros veteran is seen influencing the batting lineup of the Cubs through his performance. The Cubs’ manager, Craig Counsell, revealed that he had heard players discussing Tucker’s performance in different situations.
“It’s fun to see the other hitters react to watching him hit and just identifying his approach and picking things out about what they like about his approach. And that’s fun, because you can see the other guys trying to take something from Kyle,” said Counsell in an interview.
Tucker’s impact on the team can be well seen as he pulls in Seiya Suzuki for a home run. With Tucker handling the middle order, Suzuki went all out and has four homers in his bag till now.
