FACTS/FLUKES: Altuve, Boyd, Davidson, Cahill, and E. Diaz

Altuve starts slowly... After his 2017 MVP season featured a .346, 24 HR, and 32 SB final line, fantasy owners were taking Jose Altuve (2B, HOU) as the second overall pick in many 2018 drafts. His consistent skills have produced four-consecutive seasons of $40+ R$. In 2018, hitting .308 with two home runs and two stolen bases in his first 185 at-bats has resulted in $17 R$. Does he have the skills to bring up his earnings?
