FACTS/FLUKES: Cano, Carrasco, Longoria, Liriano, Gomes

Cano a pillar of consistency…When Robinson Canó (2B, SEA) signed his 10-year contract before the 2014 season, the nay-sayers said the sky was falling. Moving from Yankee Stadium to Safeco surely would kill his power, and his power-challenged 2014 seemed to prove them right. Since then, it’s not been a problem; he’s hit over 50 HR since the start of the 2016 season.
