FACTS/FLUKES: Wieters, J. Chavez, De Aza, Salazar, S. Perez

H% driving Wieters’ hot start…With their off-season moves, the Orioles are clearly in “win now” mode. One of the reasons is that their star catcher, Matt Wieters (C, BAL) is a free agent after the 2015 season. In the early going, Wieters has certainly done nothing to hurt his future value.
