BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues
OWNED IN: 2% of leagues
ANALYSIS: With Jose Altuve and George Springer on the disabled list, there was some reshuffling done which now allows first baseman Tyler White to get some playing time at first base. Thus far, he is making the most of it. In the last two weeks, he has three homers, nine RBI, and a .342 batting average.
In 79 plate appearances, White has a slash line of .279/.380/.574. These totals are boosted by a 14% walk rate and a .294 ISO. It should be noted, though, that White is not hitting the ball as hard this year (33%) as he did in 2017 (44%). With a 43% fly ball rate, it must be enough to stay productive.
The Astros will face two games at home versus the Rockies followed by three games in Oakland. While the Astros lineup is not as feared as it was last season, getting any player in the Astros' lineup without giving away much is solid business.
