FACTS/FLUKES: Solarte, C. Gonzalez, Hendricks, Gsellman

Solarte coming on strong ... Yangervis Solarte (2B, SD) got off to a pretty slow start, as he was hitting just .251 with two home runs in 191 at-bats at the end of May. An oblique strain is the only thing that has slowed him since early June, though, as he's hit .295/.351/.568 with 11 homers in 139 at-bats, while also adding shortstop eligibility in many leagues. Can he keep it up?
