4 years agoHouston Astros second baseman Jose Altuve is back among the starting nine for Tuesday’s contest versus the Rangers and right-hander Kyle Cody. Altuve has been sidelined since Sept. 3 due to a sprained right knee, with his return -- and the relative health of Houston’s infield group -- limiting the fantasy intrigue for Abraham Toro and Aledmys Diaz over the final week-plus. Altuve has scuffled mightily at the dish in 2020, slashing .224/.284/.322 in 35 games, having been caught stealing (three) more times than he has successfully stolen (two) a bag. His price tag remains inflated in DFS, while fantasy managers who are rostering Altuve are likely in a position to allow him to try and produce down the stretch.--Jesse Borek
