Houston Astros DFS SPIN
Yordan Alvarez went 1-for-4 with a two-run homer against the Blue Jays on Wednesday. Alvarez pulled a 73.2 MPH Chris Bassitt slider 366 feet to right, just over the wall, to put the Astros up 2-0 in the fourth inning. He also was robbed of another RBI by a nice Kevin Keirmaier grab in center field in the ninth. Alvarez has tailed off a bit of late, hitting .180 in his last 15 games to drop to a .274/.386/.582 overall line. But this is still Yordan Alvarez — he has five homers over that span too.
Toronto Blue Jays DFS SPIN
Brandon Belt went 2-for-4 with a solo homer against the Astros in a 3-2 win on Wednesday. Belt stung an inside slider from Ronel Blanco 408 feet into the second deck in right field. He added a single off Bryan Abreu in the eighth, but was pulled for a pinch-runner afterwards. Belt is finally showing the power he lacked in 2022, hitting .268/.385/.444 with four homers in 142 at-bats — each of those homers have come in his last seven games. He is starting to creep on to the radar in shallow leagues with numbers like that, though he is a threat to be pinch-ran for late in games.
