MLB:
With Alvarez potentially out, should Altuve move up in the order and how does that affect Houston’s fantasy outlook?
Qwiket AI:
If Alvarez is absent, Altuve likely soaks more at-bats in the two-hole or cleanup, depending on lineup balance. This can boost RBIs and runs for Altuve while increasing overall Astros exposure for fantasy players who ride a higher-order lineup. Watch for Diaz and Peña to benefit from protection and run-scoring chances.
