Outlook: Despite entering his age-35 season, Altuve has shown zero signs of slowing down. He was the lone second baseman in the fantasy landscape last year to record a 20-20 season with his 22 thefts representing his highest single-season total since 2017. The real surprise last year remains that he managed to stay healthy for a whopping 153 contests, his most since 2017. He’ll likely experience some pullback from a volume standpoint as he approaches his mid-to-late 30’s but there have been zero signs of erosion from a skills standpoint. With his defense in decline, there’s a strong possibility he’ll end up moving to left field this season. Either way, he’s still a top-five option at the keystone in all fantasy formats. |
