FACTS/FLUKES: Robles, Swanson, Yastrzemski, Weaver, Eflin

Robles off to quiet start ... Victor Robles (OF, WAS) had a monster season in 2019, when he connected for 17 home runs while stealing 28 bases in 617 plate appearances. He has been slow out of the gate in 2020, however, as he has just one home run, and has yet to steal a base. Is there reason to be concerned?
