George Springer will continue to hit leadoff for the Houston Astros.

"If it's not broke, don't fix it," Dusty Baker said.

Springer has been Houston's leadoff hitter since May of 2016 when he was inserted in the spot by A.J. Hinch.

Last season, he set career highs in home runs (39), RBIs (96), batting average (.292) and on-base percentage (.383).

"I told Springer the other day that he reminded me of past leadoff hitters -- Bobby Bonds, Felipe Alou, Tommy Agee," Baker said. "These guys were hitters and sluggers at the same time, and he can either get on base or it's 1-0 our favor. This guy, he's one of the best. You don't win Silver (Sluggers) just by taking (pitches). I love it, actually."
