2 years agoHouston Astros outfielder/designated hitter Yordan Alvarez (hand) is back in the starting lineup Friday against Reid Detmers and the Los Angeles Angels, batting third and serving as the DH. The 25-year-old phenom missed three games while dealing with a sore left hand but is good to go Friday night. Fantasy managers will hope that the time off helps Alvarez get back on track, as the big lefty was held to a .234/.326/.312 slash line in August. The lack of power is an aberration for Alvarez, and it is likely that he will continue mashing in September. Get him back in your lineups.--Matt Garon - RotoBaller
