Mauricio Dubon Hitting Streak- 14 Games and Counting
This season so far is one historic streak after another. The Tampa Bay Rays open the 2023 season winning 13 straight games. The Rays also have a home run streak going strong with at least one in their first 19 games played. Now, a Mauricio Dubon hitting streak is developing with Dubon even getting more than one hit in numerous games (in 5 games he’s recorded at least 2). He’s red hot, and smoking balls left and right.
This is exactly what the Houston Astros want to see inning after inning from Dubon. Mauricio is taking on being the team’s leadoff guy. In a lineup, this is a very essential and important spot.
The leadoff sets the tone for the offense. Moreover, the goal is to have a high rate of getting on base; additionally, the leadoff ends up getting more plate appearances than anyone else in the batting order. Therefore, you want your most talented and reliable hitter in this position.
Dubon seems to be settling into the role almost effortlessly. He is batting .323/.338/.371 with 12 runs scored and three RBI across 65 plate appearances. This is leading to Mauricio achieving results that many did not think he could accomplish. Not too long ago we all saw some DFA tweets about Dubon.
Nevertheless, during the Astros game against Toronto (they won 8-1); Dubon extends his hitting streak to 14 games thanks to a single during the eighth. At the moment it seems as though Mauricio is finally experiencing a breakthrough. His hard work is paying dividends.

Nevertheless, this type of excellence is no stranger to the Astros. Houston is a very good team, that has been dominant for a while now. Just last season the organization nabbed yet another World Series win.
The Astros despite past controversies are demonstrating that they can win outright minus an asterisk. And they are doing it with a roster of uber-talented players and athletes. Although, they do have some work to do as they currently sit in third place in their division; but there is literally no panic; the season is young. Plenty of time left to get going.
Furthermore, if Dubon is any sign or indication, they are on the right track. Moreover, Mauricio is no stranger to streaks anyway. Back in 2018, Dubon had a 24 game hitting streak. Not too shabby.
Nonetheless, the Astros know how to win and their players know how to contribute. The team is currently 9-10 (last season they won 106 games); yet slowly but surely they are putting the pieces together. Yes, Houston is seeing the light at the end of the tunnel, the outcome every team is vying for; to be the 2023 champions and victors.
