Yordan Alvarez | Fantasy Outlook

Yordan Alvarez remains an elite lineup anchor entering championship week

Alvarez has caught fire down the stretch, slashing .400/.500/.800 with two homers over his last six games as Houston's everyday designated hitter. The second-place Astros sit at 77-79 and look to snap a three-game skid, just one game back in the AL West. After calling a passionate team meeting following a frustrating sweep, Alvarez has put his recent ankle scare behind him and is locked in.

This late surge caps a historic campaign where Alvarez surpassed our projections by reaching his first 40-homer milestone while batting .313. His elite contact quality and commanding plate discipline ensure his torrid stretch is a true baseline rather than a fluke. Carrying an OPS north of 1.000, he remains an untouchable centerpiece in all fantasy formats.

Houston travels for six road games, opening in Seattle against Logan Gilbert and George Kirby before heading to Oakland. The weekend series against the Athletics is particularly juicy against struggling starters Jacob Lopez (5.79 ERA) and Jack Perkins (6.41 ERA). With prime matchups to close the week, deploy Houston's premier slugger with full confidence. Start.
