The MLB All Star break is finally here, so we are off until Thursday when action resumes for Week 15...Week 15 will be a short week that only lasts 4 days, so around 15 points should have a good chance at the SOTW...Here is what happened last week...
STUDS OF THE WEEK - Rossi, C Jones
It is fitting that these 2 finished off the 1st half with the SOTW as they both are now tied for the most this season with 3 each. They picked Aramis Ramirez and he put up 20 pts... Rossi is the current $ Leader so far with $85 in the bank, overall though his numbers are just a little bit better than average, but he is still capable of getting a top 3 finish in 1 of the categories. Jones has been absolutely on fire in the past 6 weeks...In that time he has gotten 3 SOTWs, 10 hits: 5 different times...batting .409 with 17 HRs and 43 RBIs...his first 8 weeks he was .251 with 5 HRs and 28RBIs...Last years MVP is looking to make it back to back this year...Also he is pissed that he got snubbed from this years All Star Game...(Google Pic - RJ3)
DUDS OF THE WEEK - Leonard, Price
The tough luck losers of week 14...They went with Braun last week who got a total of 0 at bats....ouch...It is always tricky when there is a Sunday injury and he doesn't go on the DL...not much you can do about it. Leonard has had a fairly average year so far and this is his 2nd DOTW...Price is having a good season and is only 1 of 10 players currently batting over .300, and is in the top 15 in RBIs...Regroup over the break fellas...
