FACTS/FLUKES: Castellanos, Hicks, Junis, Santana, Tanaka

Maybe this is just who he is? ... Nick Castellanos (OF, DET) was tabbed for a 35-HR upside in 2018’s Baseball Forecaster. While he didn’t reach that lofty plateau, he did hold 2017’s power gains and deliver an excellent .298 BA, making 2018 his best fantasy season yet.  Does he still have 35-HR upside?
