FACTS/FLUKES: Bautista, Kazmir, Drew, Masterson, Butler

Bautista looking at monster second half…After an April in which he hit only .164, some were questioning whether José Bautista (OF, TOR) was done. Hopefully you realized that was due to low h% (and maybe the lingering effects of a shoulder injury), and practiced excruciating patience; Bautista has been on a hot streak since the start of May.
