FACTS/FLUKES: Gordon, N. Walker, Eovaldi, Jay, K. Giles

Can Gordon do it again? ... It's not often you see a player enter the season in a platoon and become one of the highest earning batters in the National League, but Dee Gordon (2B, LA) has done just that in 2014. Gordon has slashed and ran his way to a .287 BA with nearly 60 steals en route to the most profitable season of any player in 2014. It certainly begs the question—what do we do with Gordon for next year?
