FACTS/FLUKES: Beltre, Swisher, Brantley, Porcello, A.Escobar

Beltre finds new level of production ... In 2010, Adrián Béltre (3B, TEX) rebounded from an injury-riddled 2009 to produce his best season since his 48-HR 2004. He then was equally productive in 2011, despite missing nearly six weeks with a hamstring strain. Has Beltre reached a new mid-career production plateau?
