FACTS/FLUKES: G. Sanchez, Giolito, Brantley, Giles, Vogelbach

Sanchez barrels up in 2019... Groin strains affected Gary Sánchez (C, NYY) in 2018, as he hit .186 with 18 HR, 53 RBI, and 51 R in 323 at-bats. During the offseason, there were questions about his batting average returning to his .278 BA from 2017. Through 127 at-bats, he has answered the call, and his .268, 15 HR, 31 RBI, and 20 R performance has provided $19 R$ at a weak position. Can he sustain his BA and power?
