Why Jose Altuve Is Ditching the Leadoff Spot After a Surprising Position Switch—What It Means for the Astros’ Season
“I just need like 10 more seconds,” Altuve added.
As Altuve pointed out himself, he hasn’t been a career leadoff hitter. The nine-time All-Star batted second when George Springer was with the Astros and often hit first.
“My at-bats hasn’t been going the way I wanted lately,” Altuve told the Houston Chronicle’s Leah Vann. “So, maybe hitting with [Peña] on the base, or whoever is gonna help me to get to the point I want to and I hit second before when Springer was here. I think that extra time is gonna help me, and to get a better approach.”
