Keeping Up With Astros Prospects: Preston Tucker

For this edition of Keeping up With Astros prospects, we briefly interview Triple-A Fresno left fielder/designated hitter Preston Tucker. Tucker was drafted in the seventh round of the 2012 MLB draft. The former University of Florida outfielder is on a mission to fulfill his dreams of making the majors. For the 2015 season, it appears that his path to Houston currently blocked by Colby Rasmus. The Astros signed Rasmus to give Tucker some more time to develop and join Jake Marisnick and George Springer in Houston in the future.
