FACTS/FLUKES: Bryant, Donaldson, Lucchesi, Winker, Nelson

Can Bryant rebound? … It was a disappointing 2018 season for Kris Bryant (3B/OF, CHC), as a blazing start (.303/.425/.592 with 8 HR in 142 AB) was derailed when he suffered a bone bruise in his left shoulder on a head first slide on May 19. The injury lingered and he wasn’t the same afterward, posting a .255/.343/.385 slash line and 5 HR in 247 AB sandwiched around two stints on the disabled list. What should we expect in 2019?
