I know we don't have to have home field advantage, but this is why we won't catch the Yankees. Just too damn inconsistent.
Tucker and Pena both have been huge disappointments over the last month, but Pena has especially looked bad for a while. Tucker was at least red hot in June, but Pena has sucked since the end of May. Dude struck out 29 times in 101 PA in July and hit freaking .208. I'm glad the Astros are adding some bats, because he probably shouldn't be hitting higher than 7th in a contending lineup right now. Sliders confuse the hell out of him.
