FACTS/FLUKES: Goldschmidt, Myers, Rosenthal, Phillips, Kuhl

Goldschmidt enjoying a phenomenal 2017 … Paul Goldschmidt (1B, ARI) finished 2016 with a disappointing (by his standards) 24 HR in 579 AB, but he made up for it by racking up a career high 32 SB. Though the 29-year-old’s SB prowess has waned a bit in 2017, his power has rebounded in a major way, as he already has 21 HR in 331 AB, while sporting a splendid .317 BA. What’s behind the resurgence?
