FACTS/FLUKES: Rios, Nolasco, Ackley, Calhoun, Beckham
Mar 16 2014
Rios looks for consistency ... Acquired in early August 2013 to fill the void left by Nelson Cruz (OF, TEX), Alex Rios (OF, TEX) turned out to be a shrewd pickup for TEX, as he hit .280 with 6 HR and a somewhat surprising 16 SBs over the remainder of the season. Swapping one friendly ballpark (U.S. Cellular Field) for another, can Rios replicate last year's success?
