Tucker agreed Wednesday with Atlanta on a minor-league deal, Double-A Mississippi broadcaster Chris Harris reports.
After three seasons abroad with the Kia Tigers of the Korea Baseball Organization, Tucker will continue his career stateside in 2022, rejoining one of the three MLB organizations he previously called home. Tucker, who had two separate stints with Atlanta in 2018, owns a .684 OPS across 651 plate appearances in parts of three seasons in the majors. The 31-year-old outfielder was one of the KBO's star hitters in his first two years with Kia, but after a major downturn in performance in 2021, he'll likely have to prove his worth at Triple-A Gwinnett before Atlanta entertains calling him up to the big club.
