Mauricio Dubón Stats

Houston Astros second baseman/outfielder Mauricio Dubon went 1-for-4 with a run scored on Thursday and was again hitting leadoff for the Astros. Dubon has been hitting first consistently since Jose Altuve went on the IL, and is likely to continue doing so until Altuve returns. Although the lineup context is nice, Dubon hasn't done much with the opportunity, slashing .233/.270/.283 in July with eight runs scored, eight RBI, no homers, and one steal. With Altuve going on a rehab assignment soon, Dubon's fantasy relevance is likely dwindling at this point and he can be safely dropped in almost all leagues.

Houston Astros infielder/outfielder Mauricio Dubon is not in the lineup on Saturday against the Cincinnati Reds. This looks to be a routine day off for the 28-year-old utility man. Dubon has been excellent for Houston this season, slashing .290/.315/.403 with three home runs, 15 RBI, and five stolen bases over 221 at-bats. Corey Julks is starting in left field and batting leadoff while Jose Altuve and Jeremy Pena are starting at their usual positions against Hunter Greene and the Reds.

Houston Astros infielder/outfielder Mauricio Dubon is starting in right field and is back in the leadoff spot on Friday against the Cincinnati Reds and rookie left-hander Andrew Abbott. Because of his versatility on defense, Dubon continues to play regularly for the Astros, even after Jose Altuve made his season debut from a fractured thumb. The 28-year-old has never been much of an offensive force in his MLB career, but he's exceeding expectations so far in 2023 with a .295 batting average (64-for-217) with 14 doubles, a triple, three home runs, 15 RBI, five steals and 36 runs scored in 54 games covering 228 plate appearances. Fantasy managers should continue riding Dubon in deeper leagues, but don't expect it to continue.
