Gonzalez started in left field for the first time this season Saturday against the Royals.

EDGE Analysis

The Astros have a couple of outfielders -- Josh Reddick and Nori Aoki -- that don't hit left-handers particularly well, so there will be more outfield opportunities for the versatile Gonzalez. That Gonzalez leads Houston with a .364 batting average through six games also helps him get into the starting lineup. Depending on your league's threshold for position eligibility, the potential is there for Gonzalez to qualify as OF.
