5 Daily Fantasy Baseball Studs to Target on 7/19/16

Jose Altuve, 2B, Houston Astros

FanDuel Price: $4,500

With a .405 wOBA, 15 homers, and 25 steals, Jose Altuve has forced himself into the American League MVP conversation. For DFS, he's always someone to consider at a fairly thin position.

That's especially the case when he's on the road, and he's our fourth-ranked hitter tonight for his road clash with Oakland Athletics' lefty Dillon Overton.

Altuve owns a .426 wOBA versus lefties, and he's been unreal away from home, posting a .453 wOBA on the road.

Overton has just 8 2/3 innings to his name -- so we don't have much of a sample at all -- but it hasn't been pretty. He has struggled to an ugly 7.25 SIERA with an 8.7% strikeout rate and 10.9% walk rate. Houston could be in for a big night, and Altuve, the team's three-hole hitter, figures to play a key role.
