Week 5 Recap



Lots of poor results for a lot of people this week, except for...

STUDS OF THE WEEK - Banks - Graven - Rossi - Riether - G Badenhop
All 5 of these guys get there 1st stud of the week award going with Adrian Gonzalez who went 9/28, with 3HRs and 9 RBIs (21 pts)...Banks and Graven who are known to have their own weekly side wagers on RTTC, get to split the $50 5 ways...each get $10...Glenn Badenhop is now in 2nd place in BA at .333, thanks to a lot of the leaders having awful weeks...Graven, Badenhop and Reither are all 5 behind the leader in HRs with 7, and Graven is only 1 RBI off the lead in RBIs with 33. Good week fellas..(Google Pic - 5 guys)

DUD OF THE WEEK - Cowan
Rough week for our man from Minnesota....he went 2/21 via J Heyward...He dropped 43 pts to .297, but is still in good shape overall in BA...he is also in the middle of the pack in the other 2 categories...In his 3rd year, he is trying to make is first all star game, and it looks like his BA is his best bet for that.

Rough week for the BAs...
Only 17 of the 53 players raised their averages this week..and only 7 players are currently over .300, and 11 players are under .220

HRs
T Krauss is on pace for 62 HRs....Will this be the year some one breaks the record of 43 set in 2009. Currently 11 players are on pace for at least 44....

RBIs
T Krauss is also the only player that has had at least 5 RBIs in each week....consistency wins in this league...
