FACTS/FLUKES: Hosmer, Bauer, Rios, Masterson, Jaso

Can Hosmer break out? ... Though his team was still playing in late October, Eric Hosmer's (1B, KC) 2014 campaign was far from an individual success. He had just one home run and no steals by Memorial Day, and despite a strong finish, he failed to reach double-digits in either category for the first time in his career. Can he get back on track?
