FACTS/FLUKES: Harper, S. Castro, D. Murphy, J. Urias, A. Sanchez

Harper finishes strong in 2019... Bryce Harper (OF, PHI) got off to a slow start by his standards in his first season with the Phillies, but turned it on in the second half, finishing with 35 home runs, 15 steals, and a .260 average. Is that a reasonable expectation heading into 2020?
