FACT/FLUKES: Ryu, Fister, Davis, Alcantara, Lagares

Can Ryu get even better? ... Hyun-Jin Ryu (LHP, LA) has had a very smooth transition since coming over from Korea prior to the 2013 season. Though his ERA rose a bit during his sophomore campaign, his skills actually improved. While he's overshadowed by a couple other members of the Dodgers rotation, he owns some pretty enticing BPIs in his own right.
