FACTS/FLUKES: Tucker, Candelario, Kiner-Falefa, Sheffield, Germán

Tucker slow out of the gate... Kyle Tucker (OF, HOU) put his impressive power/speed combo on display in 2020, while also hitting for a respectable .268 average. It has been a slow start to 2021 for the 24-year-old, but is it simply a small sample or is it time for fantasy managers to worry?
