[Hey Hermano]

Cano is going to bounce back this year. I have him on my team and as a Yankees fan I'm obviously biased, but I can't see him repeating his horrid first-half slump and his BABIP was something like 30 points below his career average. He's not going to be that unlucky again.

As a line drive hitter, he won't hit many more than 20 HR, but he will hit for average. Casilla will get more steals, but I'd rather have Cano in my H2H league. When he gets hot, he gets ridiculously hot. Like last season, where he batted above .500 in his first 20 or so ABs after the All-Star break.
