FACTS/FLUKES: Freeman, Hoover, Lamb, Paulsen, Eickhoff

Freeman owns superb skills, but needs health to cooperate… Freddie Freeman (1B, ATL) was limited to 118 games in 2015 due to oblique and right wrist injuries. However, he was still able to manage a .276 batting average and 18 HR in 416 AB. What might 2016 hold?
