FACTS/FLUKES: Sano, Carrasco, A. Jackson, Trumbo, S. Dyson

Powerful Sano a batting average liability ... After missing the 2014 season recovering from Tommy John surgery, Miguel Sano (DH/OF, MIN) picked up right were he left off in 2015. He recorded a .918 OPS in 241 Double-A at bats, almost identical to the .915 OPS and 233 AB he posted at the same level in 2013. Summoned to the majors at the beginning of July and inserted into the cleanup spot, Sano appeared unfazed, mashing 18 home runs with a .916 OPS. Is Sano's skillset sufficient to sustain this level of production going forward?
