FACTS/FLUKES: Flaherty, McMahon, Crawford, Molina, Gomber

Trouble lurking beneath the surface for Flaherty … Fantasy managers were disappointed with the 4.91 ERA they got from Jack Flaherty (RHP, STL) in 2020, but underlying metrics pointed to a likely rebound, prompting a 2021 ADP of 33. Things have gone much better in 2021, as he has posted a 2.84 ERA in 57 IP. How are his skills?
