FACTS/FLUKES: Gardner, Lester, Kluber, Plouffe, C.B. Young
Jun 19 2013
Gardner powers up, slows down... Brett Gardner (OF, NYY) certainly appears to have recovered from his 2012 elbow injury, as he's one of only two Yankees to appear in every game thus far in 2013. But something is different: he's already one home run shy of his career best, even though we're less than halfway through the season. And he's on a pace for only 26 SB, which would be his lowest full-season total. Is this a new normal?
