Fantasy Impact:
Altuve’s shift to left field, confirmed Wednesday by Espada, locks him as the Astros’ everyday outfielder, with Dubón taking second base after Altuve’s solid camp transition. Plans could shift later. Fantasy managers in all leagues should roster him, expecting his elite bat to thrive in Houston’s lineup from left field, retaining multi-position value early in 2025.
