FACTS/FLUKES: Altuve, Sano, E. Rodriguez, Mancini, Bundy

Altuve swings for the fences...Despite spending more than a month on the injured list to begin the season Jose Altuve (2B, HOU) will almost certainly surpass his previous personal best home run total in 2019. It is also very likely that he ends up with a career-worst stolen base total. Are Altuve's respective home runs binge, and stolen bases drought, facts or flukes?
