6 years agoHouston Astros second baseman Jose Altuve will look to shake loose from a 4-for-27 (.148) slump when the team opens up a huge series with the Red Sox. Altuve has done his most damage hitting away from Minute Maid Park this season and also has a favorable matchup against Red Sox starter David Price. In 56 road games this season, Altuve is slashing .357/.417/.502 with two triples, four home runs, 17 doubles and 33 runs driven in. Altuve will also step into the box at Fenway Park with a .364 lifetime batting average against Price through 22 at-bats. Friday is a great opportunity for the reigning MVP to break out.--Joey C - RotoBaller
