00:00In the right direction. I want to watch this guy. Look at what he's done the last two weeks.
00:09Five homers, 13 rubbies. He's got an OPS over 1300. He's got a 450 OBP and an eight 51 slugging.
00:17This young man is getting the job done. And look, it's been a crucial time period. I want
00:21to highlight this because Alvarez has been doing this with Kyle Tucker on the shelf and
00:26Bregman was doing a little bit of an injury too. It's been a rough year for the Astros.
00:30This is another team that kind of feels like there's a lot of pressure in Houston. Justin
00:34Verlander, who, you know, left the start because of his neck. He wasn't able to, you know,
00:39go out there. Right now, this is another tenuous situation here. And that's why I think the
00:44American League West is fascinating because you have a lot of tenuous situations here.
00:47You have Seattle who's desperate for more offense. I know Julio is heating up, but God,
00:51can we get this guy some line of protection? The Astros have been dealing with their stuff,
00:54but Alvarez has been just money for this team. And I think when it's mattered most,
00:58and this is why these kinds of players don't grow on trees and they're so important. This
01:03is why Alvarez is a guy you want on your fantasy team. And this is a guy that Houston wants
01:08to have in the organization for as long as they can have him because he is absolutely
01:11been tremendous when they've needed him the most to step up. This guy's done it.
01:16I agree wholeheartedly. And from a wagering perspective, I'm always looking for players
01:20that I call set and forget, which means I'm willing to lay 10 wagers independent on that
01:26player because I know over half are going to hit. Jordan Alvarez is that type of player.
