Yordan Alvarez knocks in three runs

Astros slugger Yordan Alvarez contributed to the Astros' run parade on Thursday with three RBI of his own. Houston beat Oakland, 8-1, as Alvarez finished 1-for-3 with a bases-clearing double.

Fantasy Impact:

Injuries plagued Alvarez's 2020 season, but he dominated as a rookie the year prior, clobbering 50 home runs and winning AL Rookie of the Year. Alvarez isn't a sure thing this season thanks to his injury history and just 89 games of experience, but his value should gain plenty of clarity if he can stay healthy in the coming weeks. Regardless, he provides power and potential in an Astros lineup that lost George Springer this past winter.
