FACTS/FLUKES: Freeman, Hamels, Crawford, Zambrano, Soriano

Encore for Freeman? ... Freddie Freeman (1B, ATL) delivered a solid rookie season, mixing a decent batting average with good power and run production. If not for teammate Craig Kimbrel (RHP, ATL), he'd have a Rookie of the Year trophy to show for his work. Now Freeman has established a baseline for expectations. Is there also room for growth?
