Week 1 (and a half) is in the books and was the longest "week" in RTTC history. I really thought though there would be a lot more inflated stats because of that, but it wasn't too bad....No weekly records were broken except for the most at bats, which is now 42, by Ty Meyer...Now for the S+Ds...
STUD OF THE WEEK - Josh Wyse
The rookie went with Paul Konerko and he was 14/35, with 3 HRs and 11 RBIs, a total of 28 pts...This is the 2nd straight year that the 1st Stud is a rookie and wins it outright...The Prince Fielder Club just missed a share of the SOTW as they finished with 27 pts....step your game up....Wyse, congrats on the $50 start to your RTTC career...(Google Pic "wyse"- Rookies, this is also a tradition here at RTTC...whoever wins the SOTW I will just enter a part of their name into Google Images and post what appears...it is quite random, and I enjoy it)
DUDS OF THE WEEK - Glenn Badenhop, Matt Badenhop
This was mentioned last monday on the update that they both picked Longoria who got hurt in the 2nd game and finished the week 0-5...tough luck...Dud runners up goes to Chris Mathews who got only 2 pts this week..rough
Average - There are 8 guys currently over .400 to start the year, I say by week 3, there will be 0. There are 10 under .200...
HRs - Sunderman with an impressive 5 HRs in the 1st week...15 guys still looking for their 1st long ball...
RBIs - 7 guys over 10 already...3 (all mentioned in the Dud section looking to get numero uno this week...
We are off and running and don't be surprised by the Tribe start...I failed to mention last week why they would make the playoffs this year:
#1 - Orlando Cabrera has mad the playoffs the last 4 years....all with different teams
#2 - The last 5 times the ground hog saw its shadow, the Tribe has made the playoffs...I can't make that up....google it...
Good Luck in week 2, get picks in by 12:35PM EST...
