Astros: Tyler White continues to impress

Tyler White‘s first stint with the Astros in 2018 didn’t last particularly long. Over the course of 40 plate appearances from June 16th through July 14th, the age-27 infielder slashed .219/.375/.438 with a 131 wRC+. Yes, you can run an above-average wRC+ while having a low batting average. In two of his last three games during that stint, White hit two home runs and delivered five RBI. It was a sign for things to come in his next stint with the Astros later in the summer.

White only spent roughly two weeks with the Fresno Grizzlies before being recalled to the major league roster.
