FACTS/FLUKES: Goldschmidt, Barnes, Ahmed, Mikolas, DeSclafani
Jul 4 2019
Can Goldschmidt recover again? ... Paul Goldschmidt (1B, STL) got off to a rough start in 2018, as he was batting just .209/.326/.393 at the end of May. But he was a monster over the final four months of the season, and ended up with typical numbers, minus the stolen bases. He's off to another sluggish start (.247/.338/.404), but this time, it has extended deeper into the season. Can he be counted on to return to form again?
