Astros' Jose Altuve scratched with 'general side soreness'
Houston Astros second baseman Jose Altuve was scratched from the Thursday's Grapefruit League lineup due to "general left side soreness."
It doesn't appear to be anything of concern and Altuve is considered day-to-day. He should be at 100 percent for Opening Day.
numberFire's models expect Altuve to bat .316 with 20 home runs, 82 RBI, 97 runs scored, and 21 steals over 662 plate appearances in 2019.
