FACTS/FLUKES: Semien, Straw, Wick, Gregorius, Singer

Can Semien repeat his career year?... What a year 2021 was for Marcus Semien (2B/SS, TEX), as he set a new single-season record for HR by a second baseman on his way to career bests in HR, RBI, and SB, which added up to $34 in rotisserie value, also a career best. He also landed a seven-year, $175M contract from the Rangers this offseason; so what can his skills tell us about his chances to do it all over again in 2022?
