Houston Astros second baseman Jose Altuve (leg) will not play in Saturday's game against the Washington Nationals.
Altuve will be kept out of today's lineup after Houston's veteran suffered a leg injury on Friday. Expect Niko Goodrum to log more playing time while Altuve is out.
According to Baseball Savant on 61 batted balls this season, Altuve has accounted for a 9.8% barrel rate and a .290 expected average.
