FACTS/FLUKES: Benintendi, L. Gurriel, Gibson, K. Seager, G. Gonzalez

Benintendi hopes to get back to basics... 2019 is a season that Andrew Benintendi (LF, BOS) would probably like to forget, as he hit .266 with career lows in most categories. This seems partly due to changes he made in his conditioning and approach, as Red Sox manager Alex Cora (prior to his firing) and hitting coach Tim Hyers both recently mentioned Benintendi slimming down this offseason after bulking up in 2019, and Hyers added that, "he made some adjustments that he probably wishes he didn’t make." Does that track with what we saw in his skills?
