4/21/25	Houston Astros Skipper Thrilled With This One Aspect of Struggling Offense. Scoring runs has been a struggle for the Houston Astros in the early going of the 2025 MLB regular season. A team slash line of .222/.299/.331 has been recorded, which ranks 25th, 23rd and 27th in the league, respectively. Left fielder Jose Altuve, third baseman Isaac Paredes, center fielder Jake Meyers and right fielder Cam Smith are the only four positional players, out of 13 to make an appearance this season, who have OPS+ numbers in the triple digits. Manufacturing runs consistently has been a real issue for the team, scoring three or fewer in 15 out of 21 contests. Source: https://www.si.com/mlb/astros/news/houston-astros-...

MLB Astros' Jose Altuve off to adventurous start in left field vs. Mets By Dan Martin Published March 27, 2025, 5:12 p.m. ET HOUSTON — Jose Altuve's first play in the outfield as a professional baseball player was eventful.

But Altuve, who played 1,765 games for the Astros before switching to left this year , raced over and cut off Meyers to make the catch to end the inning — much to the delight of the sellout crowd at Daikin Park. 0% chance Jose Altuve was letting Jake Meyers catch this & not him ??
