FACTS/ FLUKES: Alvarez, Skubal, Naylor, Sandoval, Chapman
May 23 2022
Best yet to come for Alvarez? ... Yordan Alvarez (DH/LF, HOU) trails only Aaron Judge in HRs but the power output comes with .248 average -- middling for a career .285 hitter. It's a productive start, for sure, but not fringe 1st round value. What do his skills say the rest of the season holds?
