FACTS/FLUKES: Santana, Andrus, Kinsler, Zimmermann, Beltran

Santana on record pace ... With 2,200+ career innings of a 4.02 ERA and 1.26 WHIP, you'd have been pretty safe to expect little from Ervin Santana (RHP, MIN) this season. So naturally, the 34-year-old boasts a 2.20 ERA and 0.89 WHIP through 13 starts in 2017. No way he keeps this up, right?
