FACTS/FLUKES: C. Seager, L. Castillo, Soler, Dickerson, Liriano

Sore elbow likely to blame for Seager's step backward... After Corey Seager (SS, LA) won NL Rookie of the Year and finished third in MVP voting in 2016, expectations were sky high for 2017, but instead, his production declined in his sophomore season. He also dealt with a sore right elbow during the second half--was that the likely cause for his disappointing numbers?
