Jose Altuve absent Wednesday afternoon for Astros

Houston Astros infielder Jose Altuve is not in the lineup on Wednesday afternoon against right-hander Tanner Bibee and the Cleveland Guardians.

What It Means:

The Astros are giving Altuve a scheduled maintenance day after he stretched his hitting streak to five games on Tuesday night. Mauricio Dubon will cover second base and leadoff duty in Wednesday's matinee.

numberFire’s models project Dubon ($2,600) for 8.0 FanDuel points on Wednesday. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Astros' implied total is 3.84 and the game total is 8.5. Bibee has been solid in his first year in the bigs, registering a 3.11 ERA and 3.46 xERA, with a 37.2% hard-hit rate, 24.4% strikeout rate, and 8.3% walk rate.
