FACTS/FLUKES: Moustakas, Burns, Wieters, Eovaldi, Boxberger

Moustakas ready to surge…After hitting five HR during the 2014 postseason and narrowly missing out on a World Series trophy, great things were expected of Mike Moustakas (3B,KC) in 2015 from Royals fans and fantasy leaguers alike.  He did not disappoint either party, finishing the year with a bevy of Roto career-bests in addition to winning it all.  It couldn’t possibly get any better, could it?
