FACTS/FLUKES: Betts, Cano, Boyd, Kim, M. Feliz

Betts exceeds lofty expectations...After producing a surprise $30 season in 2015, Mookie Betts (OF, BOS) was regularly selected early in the second round of 2016 drafts (ADP: 17), but has produced like an early first pick (R$: $45). Does he have the skills to maintain this level in 2017, or is a small step back more likely?
