To get Astros right fielder Kyle Tucker, this is the rare event where sense lighter on his toes isn’t a fantastic thing.
“I awakened in the middle of the night, could not keep anything down,” he explained. “It was a fairly rough 24, 48 hours to get me personally. And I simply was not able to arrive at the field simply because, you understand, I did not wish to be about these men as a precaution if I got anyone ill. We are playing well right now. I didn’t wish to find down these guys .”
Tucker’s quick weight loss sapped his energy and also required caution when rebuilding his endurance and strength. He returned into the area for a brief workout Friday and engaged in regular batting practice with the team Saturday. From Sunday, he said he had gained back about four pounds and was making progress”putting back my legs under me.”
Tucker said he hopes to have the ability to play if the Astros traveling to Baltimore on Monday to get a three-game series from the Orioles.
“It sort of stinks not being able to stand out here on the field playing together ,” he stated,”but I will be back shortly.”
