Player Outlook
Mauricio Dubon opened 2023 as Houston's primary second baseman with Jose Altuve on the injured list and took advantage of the opportunity by hitting .309 in 37 games before Altuve was activated in mid-May. Dubon scored 27 runs during that stretch but had little other substance with no homers, eight RBI and three steals. He filled a super-utility role the rest of the way, though he split most of his playing time between center field and the keystone. He finished the campaign with a .720 OPS (97 wRC+) and is positioned to fill the utility role again in 2024 with the Astros returning most of their lineup. Dubon likely won't have much fantasy utility while Houston is healthy, but he could carve out a larger role if/when injuries surface.

  • Astros' Mauricio Dubon: Playing time ticking up

    Dubon went 2-for-4 with an RBI on Thursday against the Royals. Dubon was in the lineup for the third time in the last four games, two of which have come in center field in the place of Jake Meyers. The former has picked up a total of 13 plate appearances in that span, collecting four hits and a double with two runs scored and an RBI. Meyers is likely to return to a more regular role, but Dubon is a capable replacement if he continues to be called upon.

  • Astros' Mauricio Dubon: Scores run in win

    Dubon went 1-for-4 with a run scored in Monday's 10-5 win over the Rangers. The 29-year-old is capable of playing every defensive position except catcher, and it is that ability that has gotten him into games this season for the Astros. Dubon has started only two games through Houston's first nine contests, but he has entered multiple times as a defensive replacement all over the field. If any Astro were to go down with an injury and miss significant time, Dubon is more than likely to be the man to replace him.

  • Astros' Mauricio Dubon: Key bench option

    Dubon is a lock to make the Astros' Opening Day roster thanks to his defensive versatility, Brian McTaggart of MLB.com reports. Dubon logged a career-high 492 plate appearances in 2023 and posted a passable .720 OPS with 10 homers and seven stolen bases. He'll enter the 2024 season as a bench bat, but he would likely step into a more significant role should any of the Astros' regular starters be forced to miss time thanks to his ability to play any defensive position except catcher.

  • Astros' Mauricio Dubon: Wins arbitration hearing

    Dubon will make $3.5 million in 2024 after winning his arbitration hearing with the Astros on Monday, Ari Alexander of KPRC 2 Houston reports. Houston had offered $3 million. Dubon earned the substantial salary bump after slashing .278/.309/.411 with 10 home runs and seven stolen bases over 132 games for the Astros in 2023. He played seven different positions last year and is in line for a super-utility role again in 2024.

  • Astros' Mauricio Dubon: Blasts 10th homer

    Dubon went 1-for-5 with a three-run home run in Wednesday's 8-3 win over the Mariners. Dubon put the Astros ahead in the fourth inning when he took Bryce Miller deep, and that blast was enough for the win. Dubon had gone 15 games without a homer, but he hit .333 (14-for-42) in that span while filling a part-time role. He's at a solid .279/.309/.413 slash line with 10 long balls, 46 RBI, 76 runs scored and seven stolen bases through 129 contests this year.

  • Astros' Mauricio Dubon: Homers twice in win

    Dubon went 2-for-5 with two solo home runs in Monday's victory over the Rangers. Dubon tied the game 4-4 in the sixth inning with his first home run off Glenn Otto before extending Houston's lead to 12-5 with an opposite-field blast off Martin Perez in the ninth. It's the first multi-homer game of the year for Dubon, who now has a career-high nine long balls this season. While he's retreated to a bench role of late, Dubon's still slashing a solid .274/.304/.404 with 67 runs scored, 39 RBI and seven stolen bases across 438 plate appearances this season.

  • Astros' Mauricio Dubon: On bench again Wednesday

    Dubon is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Red Sox. Dubon has now been squeezed out of the starting nine twice in the past three days and could be relegated to more of a part-time role with Michael Brantley returning from the 60-day injured list Tuesday. After starting in left field Tuesday, Brantley will occupy the designated hitter spot Wednesday. With the Astros likely to lean heavily on the trio of Brantley, Yordan Alvarez and Yainer Diaz to handle DH duties in any given game while one of Alvarez or Brantley starts in left field, Chas McCormick could end up more frequently poaching work from Dubon in center field. Dubon has at least helped his case for not falling out of favor by producing a .919 OPS in August.

  • Astros' Mauricio Dubon: Contributes with home run Sunday

    Dubon went 3-for-6 with a solo homer, two RBI and two runs scored in Sunday's 17-4 win over the Tigers. Dubon was one of nine Astros with multiple hits on the day and showcased some power for his seventh home run of the year and his second this month. The 28-year-old has done well with his chances and is slashing .383/.434/.596 since Aug. 9 and has recorded a hit in all but one start since then. Dubon will continue to play a utility depth role for the club, and it seems his only path to more consistent playing time would be an injury to one of the Astros' starters.

Yordan Alvarez, Chas McCormick and Kyle Tucker will start across the outfield Friday and Jose Altuve is covering second base.

  • Astros' Mauricio Dubon: Not in lineup Wednesday

    Dubon is out of the lineup Wednesday against the Red Sox.

  • Astros' Mauricio Dubon: Gaining traction as everyday CF

    Dubon will start in center field and bat seventh in Sunday's game against the Mariners.

He'll be making his third start in four games in center field Sunday and appears to have supplanted Jake Meyers as the Astros' preferred option at the position.

  • Astros' Mauricio Dubon: In leadoff spot Wednesday

    Dubon is starting at second base and batting leadoff Wednesday against Cleveland. Dubon has shifted back into a utility role since Jose Altuve returned late last month from a left oblique injury, but the 29-year-old will get the start in Wednesday's matinee game at Minute Maid Park as Altuve takes a scheduled breather. Dubon is slashing .263/.289/.371 with five homers and six steals through 87 games this season with Houston.
