FACTS/FLUKES: Kershaw, Muncy, Swanson, Posey, T. Richards

Kershaw still among the best … Clayton Kershaw (LHP, LA) failed to surpass 175 IP for the third straight season in 2018, as he again battled back problems, but he posted terrific numbers when on the mound. While there was some concern as he opened 2019 on the injured list with shoulder discomfort, he has delivered a stellar 3.00 ERA and 1.05 WHIP through 105 IP. Can he keep it going?
