The Athletic released the honorees in their MLB All-Quarter Century team as voted on by fans, and five Houston Astros made the cut on the 40-man roster. The first was current Astros star Jose Altuve, who earned the nod as the best second baseman of the last 25 years. Altuve won AL MVP in 2017 and has won seven Silver Sluggers, one Gold Glove, and has made nine All-Star teams. Former Astro Carlos Beltrán was listed as one of the two center fielders honored.
