FACTS/FLUKES: Hosmer, Quintana, Travis, Cashner, Maldonado

Hosmer can’t recover 2016 power…Without a history of big power, Eric Hosmer (1B, KC) doesn’t fit the profile of the typical first baseman. But with 25 HR in 2016, it looked like things were changing. So far in 2017, the power’s been missing. Can Hosmer get back on track and start producing more dingers?
