FACTS/FLUKES: Devers, Treinen, Laureano, Peacock, Bauers

Devers shows skills growth in 2019... Entering the 2019 season, expectations for Rafael Devers (3B, BOS) were mixed after his .240, 21 HR, 66 RBI, 59 R, and 5 SB performance. When we visited Devers in February, Arik Florimonte noted that owners "shouldn't sleep on him." Those owners that rostered Devers have enjoyed a .301, 9 HR, 40 RBI, 47 R, and 8 SB run in 249 at-bats. Is his growth backed by skills?
