FACTS/FLUKES: Trout, Lackey, Norris, Carter, Gomes

Trout tries to keep pace ... With just two home runs and a 66 BPV through April, owners who opted for Mike Trout's (OF, LAA) upside over Miguel Cabrera's (3B, DET) proven track record in the first round of drafts were probably feeling a little queasy. Then, May happened (8 HR, 8 SB, 133 BPV). So, what can we expect from June onwards?
