Week 20 Recap

STUD OF THE WEEK - PENNINGTON

When the player you pick has 3HRs one night and then hits for the cycle the next night, chances are you are going to be in the $$ that week...Thats what Pennington had this week with his lone pick off A Beltre...He finished the week 13/30, 5HR, 9RBI (27PTS)...next closest was the Curlis Crew at 23....This was the 3rd SOTW for JP and 2nd in the last 3 weeks...he is now in 4th place with HRs (31) and 9th place in RBIs (86)...With the $60 all to himself this week, he now also is the season long $$ leader at over $80 so far..He was the HR champ in 2010 with 42...lets see if he can reach that mark again....if so, chances are he will finish in the top 3...

DUDs OF THE WEEK - ROSSI + All of the no pickers

Rossi was the only one on Carlos Beltran, and he didn't show up for him...He was just 3/20 (3pts)   At this point Rossi's best shot is probaly in HRs...He has 22, and is 10 behind 3rd place right now...This was Rossi's first DOTW for the year...

RTTC VS MLB LEADERS
BA
RTTC - T Krauss .340 - big 10/22 last week
MLB - Me Cabrera - .343 (I wonder if he will qualify for the BA title at the end of the year?)

MLB - Dunn 38 - ...he had 3 hits...all HRs haha

STUD TEAM PICK - PADRES

Josh Biederstedt was the lone SDP pick and is now only 5.5 GB of the last playoff spot..peaking at right time?

DUD TEAM PICK - ASTROS, INDIANS

How bad are these 2 teams right now..Combined they are 10-37 in August...BAD...3 people picked them probably thinking they were due to win some games...nope

G BADENHOP is starting to pull away and has the largest lead of the year at 3 games over D RYCHENER...but things can change quick...
