FACTS/FLUKES: Villar, Porcello, Seager, Leake, Candelario

Move to Baltimore a positive for Villar ... Jonathan Villar (2B/SS, BAL) had a breakout season in 2016 when he stole 62 bases and hit 19 HR while posting a .285 BA. He has been a disappointment since. Does his move to Baltimore suggest a possible return to his 2016 performance?
