Outfielder Kyle Tucker will earn $5 million this season after losing his arbitration case against the Houston Astros, but the 26-year-old said he believes the ruling wasn't correct.

"The outcome wasn't what we were hoping, and I don't think it was the right one," Tucker said, according to Chandler Rome of the Houston Chronicle.

Tucker requested a $7.5-million salary, with the team countering at $5 million.
