Week 5 Preview - Old and New Edition

Well, after this week, we will be roughly 20% thru the 2012 season...Lets take a look at the majority picks this week...There were 27 different players picked this week...

Top Pick - Jason Kipnis
Kipnis was picked 6 times, mainly I am sure because the Tribe plays 8 games this week...some people are always trying to get max at bats...we will see how the strategy works out for them...5 people picked Carlos Gonzalez...last week's Stud...and 4 people picked both Big Papi and Ryan Braun...

1st Time RTTC Picks:

Bryce Aron Max Harper...It was only a matter of time til someone picked the chosen one...At 19, I believe he is the first teenager ever chosen in RTTC history...He seems pretty legit so far...I for one, can't wait til he faces Hamels again...He was picked 1 time by Josh B.

Bryan Allan LaHair...This guy is having a huge start to the year...2nd in slugging in the majors to only Matt Kemp....He may be making the oldest RTTC debut at 29 years old...Harper was 9 when LaHair was drafted...LaHair was picked 2 times...

Top Team Pick - The Detroit Tigers

They were picked 11 times...and promptly blew a 9th inning lead last night...The Phillies were picked 8 times who also blew it in the 9th inning....The Tribe were picked 7 times, and swept a doubleheader from the ChiSox...The Astros were picked for the 1st time...

5/7 Stud of the Day - Take your pick of Pedroia and Big Papi...both put up a HR and 5 pts total..
