FACTS/FLUKES: Goldschmidt, Lester, Bruce, Lincecum, Lind

Goldschmidt an elite option ... Paul Goldschmidt (1B, ARI) was well on his way to another monster season in 2014 until he was hit on the hand with a pitch in early August. The resulting fracture shelved Goldschmidt for the season, though he still earned over $20 anyway. Is there any reason to doubt Goldschmidt entering 2015?
