After opting for free agency and leaving the Colorado Rockies, Tucker signed with the Seattle Mariners on a minor league contract in January 2024. However, he was unable to make the Mariners' spring training roster; therefore, he opted out.

Later, he joined the Angels on a minor-league contract and in 10 games for the Angels' AAA side, the Salt Lake Bees, he slashed a batting average of .313 along with one home run and five RBI.

He got his MLB call-up from the Angels for their April 29 clash against the Phillies. In the game, he featured in the DH position, and in three at-bats, he scored one RBI with a batting average of .333 and an OPS of .833.

"Amazing, it's so cool to be here," Tucker said. "It's an honor to be in such a great house with a great group of guys. Back in the big leagues. It's just fun to play baseball. Great to get the win tonight. I mean, it's still baseball at the end of day, AAA or Big leagues, it's all the same.
"We get a little more stressed here but just try to keep my nerves in check and play baseball tonight. The dugout was electric tonight. These guys want to win. We're trying to play hard and we're trying to put some W's up on the board and it was fun to get one tonight and it was mayhem in there really started something fun."
