FACTS/FLUKES: Altuve, Osuna, Pedroia, Karns, C. Santana

Elite Altuve could soar even higher…2015 turned out to be a tough act to follow, but that didn’t deter Jose Altuve (2B HOU). He posted gains across the board in 2016, won the AL batting title, and ended up finishing third in the MVP voting. Entering his prime as he turns 27, can Altuve boost his production even further?
