FACTS/ FLUKES: Alonso, Lagares, Harang, Grandal, Rosenthal

A pulse for Alonso? ... Yonder Alonso (1B, SD) saw his 2013 season go south after a broken hand, leaving room for some optimism that he could rebound at least to his 2011-12 form. But nearly one-third of the way into 2014, and he's still flirting with .200 and has just 14 RBIs.
