FACTS/ FLUKES: Hernández, Urquidy, Candelario, Mercado, Jiménez

Can Hernandez seize on breakout?  ... Teoscar Hernández (OF, TOR) tore up opposing pitchers to open the shortened season, posting a pair of two-HR games in the first week. Things gradually slid downhill from there, including a 10-day IL stint with an oblique injury in September. Still, the 28-year-old finished with at least a short-season .289-16-34 breakout over 50 games. Is he capable of keeping that pace for a full season?
