FACTS/FLUKES: Moustakas, Hosmer, Calhoun, Stroman, Neris

How will Moustakas fare in Cincy? ... Mike Moustakas (2B, CIN) had another fine season, connecting for 35 home runs, and this time, he ended up with a four-year deal. He has been both consistent and productive over the past few seasons. Is there reason to expect anything different in Cincinnati?
