The Houston Astros have selected Kyle Tucker with the 5th overall pick in the 2015 MLB Draft.
Here’s what MLB.com had to say about Kyle Tucker:
Scouting grades: Hit: 60 | Power: 55 | Run: 50 | Arm: 55 | Field: 50 | Overall: 55
Though Preston Tucker slammed 49 homers with 197 RBIs in his first two full seasons in the Astros’ system and is now in the big leagues, scouts say there’s no doubt that his younger brother is a better prospect. Like Preston, Kyle committed to Florida out of Tampa’s Plant High — Hall of Famer Wade Boggs’ alma mater — but he’s more likely to turn pro out of high school.
