FACTS/FLUKES: Puig, Lucroy, Lackey, Zimmerman, Maurer

A post-hype Puig? ... Through the many ebbs and flows of his first two seasons, Yasiel Puig's (OF, LA) fantasy production ($22, $26) remained pretty consistent. The hype machine revved up for 2015 drafts, but Puig's production tanked (.255 BA, 11 HR, 3 SB), as he battled a hamstring injury for much of the year. Now being drafted at the end of the top-100 in 2016 drafts, is Puig suddenly a post-hype value play?
