Tucker went 1-for-2 with a solo home run, a walk and a second run scored in Friday's 5-3 win over the Nationals.
Tucker ended a 22-game power drought with his sixth-inning blast. During that stretch, he hit just .132 (10-for-76) with two doubles, one triple and five RBI. Inconsistency has been a theme for Tucker throughout much of the campaign, but he continues to hold down a starting role in right field. He's batting .226 with a .686 OPS, 12 homers, 59 RBI, 73 runs scored, 20 doubles, three triples and 10 stolen bases over 133 contests.

Dodgers' Kyle Tucker: Notches 10th steal
Rotowire
Tucker went 1-for-4 with a walk and a stolen base in Wednesday's 8-6, extra-inning loss to the Cardinals.
Tucker has gone 11 games without a multi-hit effort, but he has three steals and an 8:3 BB:K in that span. The outfielder is up to 10 steals on the year, though that's a slight disappointment for a player who had logged at least 25 steals in three of the previous four campaigns. He's batting just .227 with a .679 OPS, 11 home runs, 58 RBI, 71 runs scored, 20 doubles and three triples over 131 contests in his first year with the Dodgers.

Dodgers' Kyle Tucker: Exiting lineup against lefty
Rotowire
Tucker is absent from the lineup for Thursday's contest in Atlanta.
Tucker is 1-for-9 at the plate in the first two games of the series and is sporting a lowly .575 OPS in August, so it's not surprising that he'll exit the lineup as Atlanta sends Chris Sale to the mound. Alex Call is in right field and will bat seventh for the Dodgers.

The veteran outfielder has come to life over the first two games of the series against his former club, going 4-for-6 to match the number of hits he had collected across his previous eight contests combined.

Dodgers' Kyle Tucker: Ends homer drought in win
Rotowire
Tucker went 2-for-3 with a two-run home run and a walk in Friday's 4-2 win over the Mets.
Tucker gave the Dodgers some insurance with a two-run blast in the eighth inning, his first homer since June 27. It was a much-needed boost for the 29-year-old, who entered Friday's contest just 2-for-19 since returning from the All-Star break. On the year, he's slashing .240/.333/.371 with eight homers, 50 RBI, 55 runs scored and six steals across 405 plate appearances.

Rotowire
Tucker (back) will start in right field and bat sixth Friday against the Padres, David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reports.

Dodgers' Kyle Tucker: Remaining out of lineup Wednesday
Rotowire
Tucker (back) is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Twins.
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts already said prior to Tuesday's 12-3 win that Tucker's back issue would keep him out for the remainder of the series with Minnesota, so it's not surprising that the outfielder is on the bench for Wednesday's finale. Alex Call will draw the start in right field in place of Tucker, who is expected to take part in baseball activities prior to Wednesday's contest. If Tucker responds well to the workout, he could draw back into the lineup during the Dodgers' series in San Diego, which begins Friday.

Dodgers' Kyle Tucker: Clubs three-run homer in win
Rotowire
Tucker went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run in a 4-3 win against Tampa Bay on Monday.
The Dodgers fell behind 3-0 early before Tucker gave his team a big boost with a game-tying three-run blast in the second inning. It was only the second time the veteran outfielder has gone deep at home this season, and he has hit just six homers overall through 69 games. Tucker has been largely a disappointment so far in his first campaign in Los Angeles, though his 43 runs, 39 RBI and six stolen bases are at least providing some value to fantasy managers.

Dodgers' Kyle Tucker: Opens scoring with homer
Rotowire
Tucker went 3-for-5 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's 7-0 win over the Diamondbacks.
Tucker put a 24-game power drought to rest with the second-inning blast, which was all the offense the Dodgers needed to get the win. During that span, the outfielder hit just .222 and slugged .370, adding eight doubles, two triples and nine RBI. Tucker's first year with the Dodger has been mediocre so far -- he's batting .243 with a .739 OPS, five homers, 29 RBI, 38 runs scored, 15 doubles, two triples and four stolen bases over 59 contests. He hasn't hit under .250 or posted an OPS under .800 in any full-length season in his career, so there's still some hope he'll be able to turn things around.

Dodgers' Kyle Tucker: Slugs fourth homer
Rotowire
Tucker went 2-for-5 with a solo home run and an additional RBI in Monday's 8-3 victory over the Astros.
Tucker opened the third inning with a bang, crushing a Ryan Weiss fastball over the right-field fence for a solo homer. It marked the outfielder's fourth long ball of the season and first since April 18, snapping a 13-game drought. Through 34 games in his first season with the Dodgers, Tucker is hitting a modest .242/.325/.386, though he has still been a solid run producer with 18 RBI, good for third on the club, while his 24 runs are tied for the team lead with Max Muncy.

Dodgers' Kyle Tucker: Lifts Dodgers to win Monday
Rotowire
Tucker went 1-for-5 with a walk-off two-RBI single in Monday's win over the Marlins.
Tucker's lone hit proved decisive, as his two-RBI single in the ninth inning delivered a walk-off win for the Dodgers. After posting an .841 OPS across 136 regular-season games with the Cubs in 2025, the 29-year-old is off to a relatively slow start in 2026. Through 28 games, Tucker is slashing a modest .236/.320/.364 with three homers, five doubles, 15 RBI, 20 runs and three stolen bases. He has not homered in his last eight contests.
