FACTS/FLUKES: Stanton, Lincecum, Prado, Niese, Adams

Stanton mashing ... Giancarlo Stanton (OF, MIA) is making waves with the bat early on in 2014. His 11 HR through 142 AB lead the National League and he's hitting nearly .300 to boot. At just 24 years old, are we looking at the next premier slugger for the foreseeable future?
