FACTS/FLUKES: Morneau, Cain, Moustakas, Phelps, Straily

Vintage Morneau unlikely to re-appear ... Justin Morneau (1B, MIN) has experienced a dramatic fall from the ranks of the top first basemen since he took an errant knee to the head back in 2010, resulting in lingering concussion symptoms that have stifled his production since. Still only 32, is 2013 the year he's able to put those issues behind him?
