The 34-year-old has been hot with a .365 batting average with three home runs and 13 RBI over his last 15 games. Fantasy managers should make sure to keep Altuve in their lineups while he's hot at the plate.

Houston Astros second baseman Jose Altuve gave his team a big lift during Sunday's game against the Detroit Tigers. The veteran slugger went 2-for-3 with a three-run home run in the 4-1 win.

Houston Astros second baseman Jose Altuve will start Sunday's contest versus the visiting Minnesota Twins on the bench and give way to Mauricio Dubon, who will start at the keystone and bat sixth against Twins rookie right-hander Simeon Woods Richardson. It's just the second time all year that Altuve hasn't started a game for the Astros. Fantasy managers will want to move him to their benches for Sunday's action. The 34-year-old perennial All-Star has avoided the injury bug so far in 2024 and continues to be a hitting machine, slashing .292/.346/.450 with nine home runs, 20 RBI, eight stolen bases and 34 runs scored in his 240 at-bats. Expect him to be back in the starting lineup for Monday's series opener against the visiting St. Louis Cardinals. Dubon has done nothing but hit this year as well but only has two homers and two steals to show for it.

Houston Astros second baseman Jose Altuve is getting the day off on Mother's Day on Sunday in Detroit against the Tigers. With Altuve on the bench, Mauricio Dubon will start at second base and hit ninth in the batting order against Tigers right-hander Jack Flaherty. This will be Altuve's first day off of the season. The 34-year-old eight-time All-Star has been great this year so far with a .317/.379/.503 slash line with an .882 OPS, a league-leading 51 hits, seven home runs, 13 RBI, seven stolen bases and 26 runs scored for the Astros in 39 games played. However, he's slowed down of late, going 3-for-21 with seven strikeouts in his last five games. Dubon is hitting .274 (23-for-84) on the year but with only one home run. The 29-year-old will be a low-upside sleeper in DFS in the nine-hole for Houston in a tough matchup.

Houston Astros second baseman Jose Altuve went 1-for-4 with an RBI, a run scored, and stole his seventh base of the season in Friday's 5-3 win over the Mariners. The steal was No. 300 for his career, and along with his 2000+ career hits as well as a career batting average over .300, he joins some of the best names to play the game of baseball in Derek Jeter, Paul Molitor, Willie Mays, and Roberto Alomar. Now slashing .348/.411/.576 on the season, his wRC+ of 185 is fifth-best thus far, and the 33-year-old is the top-scoring second baseman in fantasy aside from Mookie Betts who is eligible at the position.
