When the league adjusts to Yordan Alvarez, it won't matter

ASTROS ROUNDTABLE

The Astros seem to really have something special with Yordan Alvarez and his hot start to his career, but is the league eventually going to make some adjustments that slow him down?

Most likely Alvarez will show some regression, but his raw power is something he can rely on even if he struggles with consistency.

ESPN 97.5's Fred Faour, A.J. Hoffman, and Raheel Ramzanali share their thoughts on the Astros' phenom and how the league will try to combat his success.
