The Astros are expected to have plenty of at-bats available in left field. Dezenzo will have his chance to earn more playing time. Jose Altuve has also said he is open to playing in left field.

Zach Dezenzo went 2-for-5 with a home run and an RBI in the Astros' 5-2 win over the Guardians.

The third baseman's performance included his second homer of the season and a pair of strikeouts. Despite the occasional power display, Dezenzo's season has been marred by high strikeout rates and a low batting average, sitting at .228 through 18 games. His .276 wOBA and .324 BABIP suggest some potential for improvement, but fantasy managers should remain cautious, as his consistent contact issues could limit his value in most formats.
