FACTS/FLUKES: Keuchel, Desmond, Mauer, M. Moore, Lowrie

Concern over Keuchel's slow start...2015 Cy Young award winner Dallas Keuchel (LHP, HOU) has his owners concerned, due to the significant investment required to acquire his services (45 ADP), and the 5.11 ERA, 1.57 WHIP, and 2-4 record he has posted after six starts. Easy come, easy go for the unexpected ace, or just a bit of early season misfortune?
