FACTS/FLUKES: Kepler, D. Castillo, Abreu, Miley, Galvis
Jun 18 2019
Kepler has 30-HR season in sights... When Derrick Boyd checked in on Max Kepler (OF, MIN) during the offseason, he mentioned that Kepler's "skills point to an R$ spike." Boy, has he been right about the R$ spike. Those owners that that took a shot on Kepler's skills have been rewarded with a .266, 17 HR, 44 RBI, and 47 R performance in 237 at-bats in 2019. Does he have the skills to sustain his breakout and possible 30 HR season?
