His 6 Power has converted into 6 HR in 93 AB! He has 13 15 8 and 6 for his hitting skills. Is there a clue in these skill numbers or is this just a real Hot Streak?

Its only useful when drafting players, where you want to prioritise: very good --> good --> above average --> anything else. You really want to look at SI and POT - the more POT (potential) a player has the more SI he will have. The usual range of SI for an 11 POT is 86-95, so Sun looks like he's maxed out. You can put his power 'burst' down to small sample size, as he's not a great hitter and he has no power report, which means he'll likely regress the more you play him. He's also not a good fielder - you want Fielding & Range at 15+ at 2B, if you can get it. Plus his 17 Speed is wasted. I'd replace him as soon as you can.
