Jose Altuve Hitting .245 In September
6 years agoHouston Astros second baseman Jose Altuve is 12-for-49 (.245) through 13 games played in September. The reigning MVP has lacked consistency since returning from the disabled list with a knee injury. It is fair to question whether Altuve is 100% even though he has hits in eight of his last 10 games. It still has been an elite season for the second baseman but the numbers are certainly down in comparison to what fantasy owners have come to expect. For the year, Altuve currently is slashing .318/.387.457 with two triples, 12 home runs, 29 doubles, 57 runs batted in and 78 runs scored. Most players would take that on the back of their baseball card but Altuve's numbers are down across the board from 2017.
