STUDS OF THE WEEK - Punches, Stout, Banks, Cowan, Price, C Jones, G Badenhop

One of the biggest weeks of the year as these guys all went (before this week struggling) Al Pujols...All he did was go 12/27, 5 HRs and 10 RBIs...including walk off bombs Saturday and Sunday...This is Banks, Stout, and Badenhop's 2nd SOTW of the year...Stout has now taken over the BA lead at .327...Cowan is now 2nd in HRs at 17....and Stout is now 4th in RBIs with 49...C Jones may be getting his MVP form back from last year as he doubled his HR total this week to 10....Congrats on the big week and the $7.14...lunch is paid for today...(Google Pic - Super 7)

DUDS OF THE WEEK - Burger

One of the couple of people who got hurt by some bad luck this week was Burger...In the first AB of the week from Soriano, he pulled his quad and finished the week at 0/1....The Monday injury strikes again...Tim Guelde and Doug Krauss also with some bad luck with Holliday and Kubel...at least hey got some hits first....its a part of the game, and nothing you can do about it...

WEEK 22 RESULTS

STUD OF THE WEEK...BRENT WILLIAMSON

.321, 3HR, 12RBI...Willie with a big week puts him up to 4th place in RBIs with 103..20 behind the leader TKrauss....last 2 weeks 18 RBI for him..(GOOGLE PIC...B WILLIE)

DUD OF THE WEEK... Neil Cowan, Jodi Biederstedt.

.118, 0HR, 0RBI...last years, co-HR champ Jodi B is 7 back from the leaders in HRs...so time is running out on her to defend her half of the crown...Cowan pretty much ranks out as average in all 3 categories....he would need a miracle last month to place in the top 3...

BA RACE...Bindel has finally overtaken Hernandez by 1 pt at .334-.333...Hernandez led BA since week 4

HR RACE...Brooks and Whittlesey are all tied at 38...could we have a split HR champ again this year?

RBI RACE..Tim Krauss has a commanding 10RBI lead in this one over Whittlesey...4 more and he breaks the single season record at 127

WEEK 12 RESULTS

STUD OF THE WEEK: JAY PERSINGER

14-28(.500) 1HR, 1RBI...Usually the stud of the week has big time power numbers, but this week no one had more than 2HRs...also no one came close to Jay's 14 hits, 2 off of the all-time record...He bumped his average up from .285 to .305 going from 24th place to 7th place. (google pic-J Pers)

DUDS OF THE WEEK: TIM G., COWAN, PLYMALE, PRIGGE, CLARK

.261, 0HR 0RBI...This is probably the highest average a Dud will ever get, but, they were the only players to go for 0-0...All 5 of these guys are in the bottom half of the standings in HR and RBI...this week sure didnt help things...

WEEK 10 RESULTS

STUDS OF THE WEEK: TY MEYER and SHAWN HERLIHY

.259, 4HR and 6RBIs...This week saw below average numbers as you can see with the studs average, but they came through with the most home runs to give them the weeks top honor. And in Ty's case he had to have set a record that will never be broken. He actually saw in person, 2HRs for his RTTC player in one day(Pujols-Sat.) So that means someone would have to see his player hit 3 in 1 game to break that record...no chance(google pic-TY-SHAWN)

DUDS OF THE WEEK: JOSH B, CLARK CARROLL, NEIL COWAN

3-24(.125) 0HR, 0RBIs....terrible week for these 3...Josh B is getting killed by his wife this year(similar to last yr)...Clark is dropping quick in BA, and Neil is only hitting better than 3 other people this yr...so, for these 3, things can only get better from here.
