FACTS/FLUKES: Altuve, Rodon, A. Rodriguez, Britton, Morrison

Altuve firing on all cylinders…He snuck up on no one last spring. A perennial all-star, Jose Altuve (2B, HOU) ranked as a first rounder; so far in 2016 he’s done nothing to dispute that. While Houston struggles to get above .500 in the AL West race, Altuve shines.
