FACTS/FLUKES: Gonzalez, Fowler, Dickerson, Rojas, Guerra

Luck on Gio's side again so far in 2018... Gio González (LHP, WAS) has seen his value swing dramatically in recent years, despite some pretty consistent skills. Last year's 2.96 ERA screamed regression, but he's been even better so far in 2018, with a 2.27 mark through 11 starts. Is it time to buy into him as a sub-3.00 ERA pitcher?
