Astros giving breather to Jose Altuve (head) on Wednesday night
Houston Astros second baseman Jose Altuve (head) is out of the starting lineup on Wednesday night against the Cleveland Indians.
What It Means:
Altuve managed to avoid a concussion when he collided with teammate Teoscar Hernandez on Tuesday night, but the Astros are going to give him the night off anyway. Marwin Gonzalez will start at second and hit ninth against right-hander Trevor Bauer and the Indians.
Gonzalez costs a minimum $2,000 price tag on FanDuel tonight and could make for a decent value play. numberFire's models project him to score 8.2 fantasy points.
