FACTS/FLUKES: Kershaw, Yastrzemski, Neris, D. Peralta, La Stella

Kershaw is still going strong … Clayton Kershaw (LHP, LA) sent fantasy managers into a panic when it was announced he would open the 2020 season on the IL with back spasms, but he returned after 11 days and went on to post a stellar 2.16 ERA and 0.84 WHIP in 58 IP. How are the 33-year-old's skills heading into 2021?
