FACTS/FLUKES: Giolito, Blackburn, Schoop, Hernandez, Zunino

Giolito not quite in peak form ... Lucas Giolito (RHP, CHW) has eclipsed 200 strikeouts in each of the last two full seasons and was one of the top pitchers off the board this draft season. He hasn't quite lived up to expectations, thanks in large part to his 1.41 WHIP. Let's see how the skills check out.
