Cubs to give struggling Kyle Tucker some days off to reset

Chicago – Cub Right fielder Kyle tucker Manager Craig Counsel said after his team 7-0 loss till Milwauki Bruers,

The 28-year-old Tucker has fought strongly in this month, killing. 160 with zero additional-base hits. Damage to the brooors included them two weaker groundouts and a popup in the left area after each of their last three at-bats. He also got out of his first et-Bate.

“The fans are disappointed, and Kyle is disappointed,” said counsell. “When you do it out, it doesn’t feel good. He is trying. It’s just not clicking. We are going to take back a step here, just give him a few days to reset him, hopefully.”

Players are not available for speaking among doubleheaders, so the tucker could not comment on the decision, and Game 2 was later postponed on Tuesday due to weather.

Tucker has not done since 19 July and has just four additional-base hits since 1 July.

“He is disappointed, and we’re not coming with the solution for him and he is not coming up with a solution,” CONSELL said. “Sometimes, you have to take some steps back to move again.”

Overall, the tucker is hitting a .821 with a .821 ops. 261, but in August its ground ball rate has hit the sky. According to ESPN Research, it is 53.7%, the highest in qualified hits. Entering the month, he ranked ninth in the ground ball rate.

Jade Hayer, president of the cub of baseball operation, said before the game, “This is not for the lack of effort in favor of coaching side or Kyle.” “He has not slipped in a long time. The ball is not in the air. Velos who exit are not high. It has a lot of mechanical. If you look at his swing at the beginning of the year, unlike now, it is less connected, so less powerful.”

Tucker blocked her right ring finger in early June, an injury that could affect her hold on her swing and later on her mechanics, but insisted that it is not an issue. After this season, an eight -year -old experienced will be a free agent.

Hair said, “He is a very good player for this.” “He is going to be hot again. Hopefully, it is a badly edge as it was in April.”

This line will not start for at least some sports as the tucker will continue to work behind the curtain to find a solution when obtaining a mental reset. Meanwhile, cub starter Cad Horton Due to the blister issue, the third innings left a loss on Monday, but said he feels that he would start his next.

“It’s nothing crazy,” said Horton.
