FACTS/FLUKES: Betts, S. Gray, Calhoun, Ar. Sanchez, Nunez

Betts blossoms…News flash: the Red Sox hit a lot of home runs. As usual, David Ortiz (DH, BOS) leads the team. But the second-leading slugger on the team—by a large margin—is Mookie Betts (OF, BOS). With Betts best known for his wheels, his value doesn’t exactly come out of left (center?) field, and he did post moderate power in 2015. Can he continue the power barrage?
