Kyle Tucker Picks No. 23 After Dave Roberts Conflict, Honors Michael Brantley

Bob Nightengale reported Tucker is changing jersey numbers after joining the Dodgers. He previously wore No. 30, but that number belongs to Dodgers manager Roberts, so Tucker will wear No. 23. The switch honors former Astros teammate and mentor Brantley, whom Tucker credited for guidance early in his career. The Dodgers signed him to a four-year, $240 million deal.
