FACTS/ FLUKES: Ramirez, Arrieta, Ozuna, Cabrera, Anderson

Gravity reels in Ramirez ... Hanley Ramírez (SS, LA) tallied a season's worth of stats in 300 ABs last year while posting a career-high BA. The performance shot him up draft board this spring as owners imagined a vintage .300/30/30 season. Predictably, he hasn't maintained last year's pace, and the BA drop-off has been worse than envisioned.
