A locked-in Altuve is the most dangerous thing about this lineup.

Our outfield defense has got to be one of the worst in the league.

If there is one worse I'd like to see it
Tucker was a GG nominee last year and Brantley has lost a step but has been one in the past and is still decent. Straw ain't exactly Griffey Jr but I doubt we are the worst OF in baseball.

Brantley is slow and can't get to a lot of balls others would. He takes someone weird reads on balls and has average arm. Straw can't read balls off the bat and takes terrible angles and that doesn't look like it's changed from last year. sub par arm.

Tucker isn't exactly fleet of foot but has a good glove and average arm.

Granted haven't see every single outfield but I'd be willing to bet we are one of the 5 worst

Surprised to see Altuve on 3rd, honestly.

Only reason I can think of is Brantley hit it too hard.

Tucker isn't fleet of foot? Fastest guy other than Straw Tucker?

Brantley on pace for 324 doubles this year, might be an Astro record.

Im going out on a limb and saying the Semien for Andrus change is not going to work out well for Oakland.

Would come pretty close catching Biggio's 668 career doubles in 2 seasons. That'd be worth the money.

Anyone think Carlos has his contract stuck in his head and is pressing too much? He looks a bit lost.

Almost everything you wrote here is wrong. Tucker is fast. All 3 have good arms.

They had Brantley-Springer-Reddick ranked 1st in all of baseball in 2019. Not the best anymore, but doubt we are all of the sudden near the worst.

This team might be proving that we don't need to offer Correa a stupid amount to have a great offense. I absolutely hate when he's like this.. swinging at anything close, guessing, chasing. Someone that talented should be a lot more focused.
