Jose Altuve went 3-for-5 with a run scored in the Astros' 6-3 victory over the Athletics.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance is a continuation of his solid hitting this season, maintaining a .298 batting average through 50 games. While he didn't contribute any extra-base hits or RBIs in this game, his ability to consistently get on base has been a boon for fantasy managers, especially in formats that reward hits and batting average. Despite a lack of power and speed numbers in this particular matchup, Altuve's overall production, including a decent tally of home runs and stolen bases, keeps him as a valuable asset in most fantasy lineups. His sustained high BABIP and wOBA suggest he's making quality contact, which should reassure managers about his ability to maintain a solid offensive output.
