FACTS/ FLUKES: Olson, Cruz, Eovaldi, Hays, Montgomery

Can Olson overcome ct% woes? ... Matt Olson (1B, OAK) began the shortened season in uninspiring fashion and in some respects it finished even worse. Sure, he banged out 14 HRs, but the power came with a .195 average and he whiffed in 42% of September ABs. Can he improve the BA enough to not be such a liability for fantasy managers?
