Astros

They are currently 17th in the league with a .663 team OPS, but they are only getting on track with a .288 batting average as a group. One of the main reasons why the team is doing well this season has been the performance of Yordan Alvarez, who is currently having a .975 OPS with seven home runs and 13 RBIs.
