FACTS/FLUKES: Wieters, Hellickson, Dunn, Hernandez, Kipnis

Wieters has arrived... Last Spring, the words most commonly associated with Matt Wieters (C, BAL) were "disappointment" and "overrated." All Wieters did was answer his critics by putting together a stellar second half and he's come charging out of the gate in 2012 as well. Is it time to call him a star?
