Week 1: First Sunday Roundup

Paul DeJong's power-packed rookie season might not have been a fluke. 
David Robertson presents our GIF of the Day. 
STUDS: Rich Hill (PYB) didn't allow a run and struck out 5 in a 6-inning win against the Giants. He even kept Joe Panik in the yard! Bryce Harper (AL) and Paul DeJong (BM) each hit a pair of solo homers and walked. Josh Harrison (M) did nothing in the first game of a doubleheader, then went off in game 2, finishing a triple short of a cycle, driving in 2 and scoring twice. Felipe Rivero (R) picked up saves in both games against Detroit, striking out 5 in 2 scoreless innings. Gio Gonzalez (R) fanned 7 and allowed 1 run in a 6-inning win.

DUDS: Jose Quintana (CB) allowed 6 runs and struck out 2 in a 6-inning loss. What's the deal with Cubs pitchers being lame against the Marlins? Also, Giants hitters other than Panik earn a spot on this list for producing zero runs in the team's first four games of the season.
