23-year old righty swinging 2B Jose Altuve continues to rake, despite not having a lot of help in the lineup. Altuve has played in 46 games for the Astros so far this year and he is 58 for 188 (.309 avg, .747 OPS) with 20 runs scored, 2 homers, 21 RBIs and 5 stolen bases. Altuve has now played in 250 games in his first three years with the Astros and he is 286 of 985 (.290 avg, .722 OPS) with 126 runs scored, 11 homers, 70 RBIs and 45 stolen bases. Altuve is only 5′5″, 175 pounds….but he stands tall on the baseball field for the Astros. He is one of my favorite players to watch in all of baseball.
