FACTS/FLUKES: Grandal, D. Castillo, Odor, J. Jimenez, Encarnacion

Grandal's power plays at catcher... In his 2019 season with the Milwaukee Brewers, Yasmani Grandal (C, CHW) earned $13 of R$. In 513 at-bats, he hit .246 with 28 HR, 77 RBI, 79 R and 5 SB. He will switch teams in 2020, as he signed a contract with the Chicago White Sox. When looking for power at C, is he good for another 20+ HR?
